Refund and Withdrawal Policy

It is to the financial advantage of students withdrawing, dropping to part-time status or dropping to a lower block of credit hours to do so as early in the semester/session as possible. Refunds for tuition and fees (excluding room and board charges which are determined by contractual agreement) will be considered during the twenty (20) class day refund period in the Fall and Spring and the five (5) day refund period during the summer.

August 23 – August 27, 2021; First five consecutive class days: 100%
August 28 – September 3, 2021; 6-10 consecutive class days: 75%
September 4 – September 13, 2021; 11-15 consecutive class days: 50%
September 14 – September 20, 2021; (16-20 consecutive class days): 25% **
Beginning September 21, 2021 (21st consecutive class day): no refund

No refunds will be considered after the published “last day for partial refund”. Refer to catalogs, contracts or contact the appropriate office/department for greater detail for the withdrawal process. Students withdrawing from the university must do so in writing to the Office of the Registrar. A $25.00 non-refundable registration/ processing fee is charged for students withdrawing.

If a student wishes to appeal the refund process, it must be initiated in writing to tuitionappeals@ecu.edu. For more information on the appeals process, please see the Tuition Refunds Appeal Committee Standard Operating Procedures.
