Refund of Registration Charges (Withdrawals and Drops)

Withdrawal refers to dropping all classes and no longer being enrolled in the session.
Dropping
courses refers to dropping a course/s but still being enrolled in at least one class for the session.

It is the student's responsibility to officially withdraw if they do not plan to attend after registering. Students will not be automatically dropped for non-attendance.

Repayment of certain types of Financial Aid administered through the University may be required as the result of dropping classes or withdrawing. Contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.


Withdrawal PRIOR TO the first official University class day

Students wishing to withdraw and avoid financial obligation must do so PRIOR to the official First Class Day of the Session:

  • Winter Intersession: First Class Day is December 16, 2024
  • 16-Week: First Class Day is January 13, 2025
  • 5-Week I: First Class Day is January 13, 2025
  • 8-Week I: First Class Day is January 13, 2025
  • 5-Week II: First Class Day is February 17, 2025
  • 8-Week II: First Class Day is March 17, 2025
  • 5-Week III: First Class Day is March 31, 2025

Withdrawals before the first official University class day may be done through MyMav.


Withdrawals ON or AFTER the session first class day

All students withdrawing for any reason on or after the first class day of the session are financially responsible for their pro-rata share of tuition, fees, and charges. Section 54.006 of the Texas Education Code dictates the refund and collection percentages that apply to withdrawing students.

Students who withdraw with financial responsibility and subsequently fail to pay tuition, fees, and charges will be reported to National Credit Bureaus and subject to additional fees and collection efforts, as allowed by law. To read more about the process for dropping a class, visit Implications of Dropping a Class.
