The College Policy on refunds for students withdrawing from the College,
whether voluntarily or by dismissal, is set forth below:
Tuition
Refunds for students who withdraw after tuition has been paid, but prior to
registration and the first day of classes, will be 100% of tuition. After the
beginning of classes, refunds will be calculated as follows: a refund of 90 %
for withdrawal during the first week of the term, a refund of 75% for
withdrawal during the second and third weeks of the term, a refund of 50% for
withdrawal during the fourth week of the term, and a refund of 25% for
withdrawal during the fifth week of the term. No refund will be made after the
fifth week of the term.
Board
Refund shall be calculated on a pro rata basis for any student who withdraws
voluntarily or who is dismissed from the College during the term.
Residence Hall Room Rents
The policy for residence hall room rent is identical to the tuition refund
policy: 100% before classes begin; 90% during the first week; 75% during the
second and third weeks; 50% during the fourth week; and 25% during the fifth
week. There is no refund after the fifth week. This policy applies to all
dormitory rooms and to room rents in College-owned fraternities and
organizations.
Other Charges
Charges for computing equipment and for Dartmouth Student Group Health Plan
are non-refundable. Other miscellaneous fees and charges, including student
activity fees and class dues, are non-refundable if the student withdraws after
registration and the first day of classes.
The only exception to this policy will be for students receiving Title IV,
HEA federal financial aid who are attending Dartmouth for the first time and
who withdraw on or before the 60% point in time of their first term of
enrollment. Refunds for these students will be calculated using the pro rata
refund formula prescribed for these particular students by federal regulations.
Please consult with your Financial Aid Office for particulars and examples.
In the case of a withdrawing student receiving Dartmouth scholarship
assistance or federal financial aid, the share of the refund returned to the
student or family is dependent upon a number of factors. The amount of
scholarship retained and/or the amount of repayment due to federal programs
must be calculated in accordance with applicable regulations and formulas.
Please consult with your Financial Aid Office for particulars and examples.
Refunds, scholarship adjustments and repayments of federal funds are
recorded to the student’s account. All requests for student account refunds
shall be submitted in writing to the Student Accounts Office, and any balance
due the student upon the making of such adjustments shall be paid to the
student with 30 days.
In any instance where it is felt that individual circumstances may warrant
exception to the Refund Policy, the student may appeal in writing to the
Controller.
