Refund Schedule
Students are responsible for officially withdrawing from a course. A registered student who, fails to attend a course, and fails to officially withdraw from the course, is still responsible for all tuition and fees. After census day, students may be withdrawn from courses in which non-attendance is recorded by the instructor. Non-attendance does not constitute a drop in a course nor qualify students for a refund. A student who receives grades for a course but does not pay will be subjected to a collection fee when the unpaid balance is turned over to a collection agency.
Refund
Refunds will be made according to the following schedule:
5-week course - 16-week course: 100% refund: Before or during the first seven calendar days of the course. No refund given after the seventh day.
Less than 5-week course: 100% refund: Before the first day of the course. No refund given as of the first day of the course.
The college reserves the right to make the final decision on all refunds. It is the student's responsibility to know the refund dates for their courses. No refunds will be granted when a student is dismissed or suspended from the college for disciplinary reasons. Withdrawals after the 100 percent refund period will result in a grade of "W".
All requests for exceptions to this policy must be made in writing on a General Petition form and submitted to the Welcome Center in the Student Center within one calendar year of the start date of the semester in dispute.
Subject to revision by the Triton College Board of Trustees without prior notice.
