Withdrawing From the University of Arkansas

Students must contact their advisor or the The Enhanced Learning Center to withdraw from regular academic sessions.

Students who register for any session and will not be attending, must drop all classes prior to the first day of class in order to receive 100% cancellation of tuition and fees for the session. Failure to do so may result in failing grades, the misapplication of financial aid, and the full assessment of tuition and fees for the session.

Students who officially withdraw from regular academic sessions (fall and spring) may qualify for a partial cancellation of tuition and fees based on the official date of the withdrawal (normally defined as the date recorded by web registration). Partial cancellations will not apply to classes dropped prior to the official withdrawal date. Admission application, orientation, and installment plan fees are nonrefundable.

Students who officially withdraw from summer academic sessions may qualify for a partial cancellation of tuition and fees based on the official date of the withdrawal (normally defined as the date recorded by web registration). Admission application fees are nonrefundable.

Appeals
Students who are forced to withdraw from the University because of illness, accident, or injury may petition registration related charges by submitting a written appeal to the Treasurer's Office. Whenever possible, appeals should be submitted immediately following the completion of the official withdrawal process.

To be eligible for consideration, an appeal must be submitted after an official withdrawal, be completed by the student, and include the following information:

* Name
* University ID
* Address
* Telephone Number
* A concise description of conditions, circumstances, or events that contributed to the withdrawal
* Documentation to support/corroborate the conditions, circumstances or events that contributed to the withdrawal

The Treasurer's Office written response will be mailed to the address provided and will follow no more than 10 business days after the receipt of an appeal. In the event that more information or documentation is required from the student before a decision can be made, the response may be delayed.

When an appeal is approved, a percentage of the registration related charges are cancelled. Any resulting refund will be returned to the source of origin (e.g., financial aid programs, third party sponsors, or the student). Approval of an appeal from the Treasurer's Office will not affect nonrefundable fees (admission application, orientation, and installment plan), housing charges, or library and traffic fines.

* Appeals for the current term may be mailed to: University of Arkansas/Student Accounts/HUNT 101/Fayetteville AR/72701
* Appeals for past terms may be mailed to: University of Arkansas/Treasurer's Office/ADMN 215/Fayetteville AR/72701.
