Common use of Refund Policies Clause in Contracts

Refund Policies. Prior to the Scheduled Start Date, if the student cancels this agreement, all tuition that has been paid will be refunded. The application fee ($65.00) will be refunded if the student cancels this agreement during the first three days after signing. After the Scheduled Start Date, any refunds will depend upon the elapsed time since the student enrolled, as governed by the policies defined in the Student Handbook. Students with a withdrawal date that occurs up through the completion of 60% of a term are eligible for a refund of a prorated portion of the tuition and library fee. Students with a withdrawal date that occurs after 60% of the term has been completed are not eligible for a refund. Withdrawal dates are determined in two ways, either through student‐initiated withdrawal (official) or through WGU administrative withdrawal (unofficial). Student‐initiated withdrawal occurs when the student notifies WGU of the intent to withdraw. Administrative withdrawal occurs when WGU determines that the student is no longer enrolled based on a variety of reasons such as a student's lack of academic activity, failure to establish academic activity verification at the beginning of a new term or failure to pay tuition.
