In the event of complete withdrawal from the university or a reduction in course load, refunds may be granted to students in accordance with the refund schedule on file in the Business Affairs Office in Oregon Hall. Refunds may take from four to six weeks to process. All refunds are subject to the following regulations:
- Refunds are calculated from the date the student officially withdraws from the university, not from the date the student ceased attending classes, except in unusual cases when formal withdrawal has been delayed through causes largely beyond the student's control.
- No refunds are made for any amount less than $3 unless a written request is made
- In case of complete withdrawal, students who received financial aid are responsible for repayment of that aid in accordance with the university's financial aid repayment policy and schedule. See the UO Schedule of Classes for details
Note: Students who drop a class prior to tuition payment may still owe tuition for the class that was dropped.
For complete withdrawal, contact the Office of Academic Advising, 364 Oregon Hall.
The university has an appeal process for students or parents contending that individual circumstances warrant exceptions to published policy if circumstances of withdrawal or course-load reduction are beyond the student's control. Petitions for exception to the refund policy may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar on the second floor of Oregon Hall or from the Office of Academic Advising.
