How do Enrollment Deadlines impact my tuition and fees?
Tuition and student fees are assessed immediately upon enrollment/adding courses. If you drop a course, the amount of the refund depends on whether you drop before or after the session start date and before or after the drop deadline. See Payment and Refund Policies.
Your fees can be impacted by any enrollment changes you make so be sure you’re reviewing relevant deadlines for your situation. Review information about tuition and student fees as well as payment policies before you enroll.
