Withdrawal and Refunds

A student in good academic standing who is not subject to discipline may be permitted to withdraw at any time. Withdrawal is defined as the dropping of one's entire program in a given term as opposed to dropping a portion of one's program. All students who withdraw will be charged a $75.00 withdrawal fee. In addition, a percentage of the tuition will be refunded as follows.

Any student withdrawing must notify the Academic Director in Kyoto and the Office of Global Programs in writing; failure to attend classes or notification to instructors does not constitute formal withdrawal and will result in failing grades in all courses. Any adjustment of the tuition that the student has paid is calculated from the date on which the Academic Director and the Office of Global Programs receives the student's written notification.

Only tuition is refunded. Fees (application, transcript, housing, etc.) are never refunded, either in full or in part.
