Withdrawals and Refunds

Refund Rates

Students are enrolled in the University of Lynchburg for the full academic session. However, tuition will be billed on a semester basis.

If a student withdraws or is separated from the University for any reason, a credit for fees charged (tuition and board) is given on the following basis:

Fall and Spring Semesters
  • Within week 1: 90%
  • Within weeks 2-3: 50%
  • Within weeks 4-5: 25%

After the fifth week of the semester, there is no credit.

After the start of the semester, there will be no adjustments to housing.

Summer Session

Students who withdraw before the session begins will be given a full refund of all tuition.

If the withdrawal or course drop occurs:

  • Within week 1: 50%
  • After week 1: No credit
Winter Term

Students who withdraw before the term begins will be given a full refund of all tuition.

If the withdrawal or course drop occurs:

  • Within week 1: 50%
  • After week 1: No credit

Special Circumstances

In the event the University takes a recess from classes during a pandemic, students will continue to be enrolled. There would be no credit for the semester charges for tuition, room, or board unless a student officially withdraws. In those cases, the credit would be based on which week in the semester the student officially withdraws.

Refunds and Financial Aid

Federal regulations governing Title IV financial aid programs require that the aid office determine the amount of the refund that must be paid back to the financial aid programs if the student received aid for educational expenses. Therefore, some or all of a student’s credit may be allocated to financial aid programs and not refunded to the student.
