    Seminars (Weekend Workshops)

    Seminars (Weekend Workshops) must be dropped two days before the start date to receive 100% refund. A Seminar (Weekend Workshop) that is registered for, but not attended, will not be considered officially dropped, and will be charged full tuition.

    Tuition refunds are based on the above only. Neither the number of class meetings nor student attendance is used in computing the refund. Students will remain responsible for all charges, including late fees, unless they follow proper procedures for officially withdrawing from 麻豆原创, and do so within the published deadlines for refund.

    A fixed rate of tuition is charged for 12-18 hours; dropping coursework will not affect direct tuition cost if the student remains between 12-18 hours. Students dropping below 12 hours during the refund period will be billed at the per credit hour rate. Students should consult the Office of Financial Aid Services before dropping coursework, as a course drop may affect financial aid awards.
