Refunds for Maryland Residents
MARYLAND
University of New England's Refund Policy follows the Federal Return of Title IV Aid Refund Policy for Maryland residents. If a student withdraws from É«ÏãÊÓÆµ before the 60% point in the semester (based on calendar days from the first day of the semester through the last scheduled day of the semester), eligible charges due or paid will be refunded on a pro rata basis within forty (40) days of termination date. Some fees are non-refundable and therefore not pro-rated. Fees not refunded are General Service (one (1)-time fee), Application (one (1)-time fee), and Technology (charged each semester fee). Financial aid awarded (if any) will be returned to the federal, state, and the É«ÏãÊÓÆµprograms on a pro rata basis. Outside scholarship or non-federal loan assistance will not be returned unless specifically requested by the provider. After the sixty (60) percent point in the semester, financial aid will not be reduced for any withdrawal, nor will any refund be granted. This policy applies to all university withdrawals, whether student initiated or administrative withdrawals. Students should note that withdrawal may or may not result in an actual refund of money to the student. Circumstances may occur in which the student still owes money to the University even after the appropriate withdrawal credit.
Maryland Students: Proportion of total course, program, or term completed as of withdrawal or termination date | Percent of Tuition Refunded |
---|---|
Less than 10% | 90% |
10% up to but not including 20% | 80% |
20% up to but not including 30% | 60% |
30% up to but not including 40% | 40% |
40% up to but not including 60% | 20% |
more than 60% | No Refund |
Contact Student Financial Services with specific questions.
Adjustments
Adjustments to scholarships, grants, and loan programs will be made in accordance with respective Title IV program regulations and University policy before a refund to the student or parent is calculated. In cases where a refund may be due and the student has received funds through the Guaranteed Student Loan Program, it is our policy to refund those funds directly to the bank that made the loan, consistent with Federal guidelines. Refunds will not be made in the case of absence, dismissal, or suspension.
Leave of Absence Policy
In the event a matriculating undergraduate student desires to apply for a leave of absence, a Leave Form must be submitted to the Dean of Students. The form will include the reason for leaving as well as the expected date of return. Leave of absence adjustment to the student accounts will be given based on the withdrawal policies. Failure to return on the agreed-upon date will result in a withdrawal.
A student in the military reserves will be granted a full leave of absence tuition credit, should the student be called to active duty while attending courses during any given semester. Room, board, and fees will be subject to regular withdrawal policies.
Payment Options
The person or persons responsible for tuition and fee payments (whether it be a student, their parent(s), or guardian(s)) may pay the charges as they come due each semester.
The payment dates in the É«ÏãÊÓÆµ-sponsored payment plans cannot be deferred for the convenience of families using guaranteed student and parent loans or other tuition payment programs. Long- and short-term financial arrangements should be made far enough in advance to ensure payment on the required dates. Special problems or emergency situations can be discussed with the Student Financial Services Center at any time.
In addition to the following options for payment, É«ÏãÊÓÆµ accepts MasterCard, Discover, and VISA cards.
Option I: Payment by Semester
About June 15, a bill will be sent for the tuition, board, room rent, and fees for the fall semester. Payment on this bill is due August 1st. Payments from the family or any other cash payments will appear on the bill as credits. Awarded financial aid will appear as a credit or, if pending, as a memo to be deducted from the amount owed on the bill. The balance due is the difference between all charges, credits, and memos. The bill for the spring semester will be sent in early December and is due in early January.
Option II: Tuition Payment Plan
É«ÏãÊÓÆµ offers students an interest-free tuition payment plan. These plans are offered on a per-semester basis and can be used to break the semester balance owed into smaller monthly installments. There is a $25 per semester fee charged for any semester a student enrolls in the payment plan. View additional information about payment plans
Application Deadline
Students and/or their parents are urged to apply by May 15th. Applications made after the start of the program (June 1) must be accompanied by an initial payment sufficient to become current with the regular ten (10)-month payment schedule. Applications for the ten (10)-month plan will not be accepted after August 15.
Late Payment Charge
The balance due each semester will be considered overdue if not paid by the specified date, and any unpaid balance will be subject to a late charge of 12% per annum or 1% per month.
Students with a past due balance on their account will have a hold placed on their account which will prevent adding enrollment for future semesters.
Additional Information
- Students should expect annual increases in the cost of attending É«ÏãÊÓÆµ since the University is subject to the same inflationary pressures that affect the rest of society.
- For their own protection while at the University, it is recommended that students carry their own local checking accounts to provide funds for incidental expenses and emergencies.
- The University offers direct deposit to its students. Students with credit balances can have the excess funds directly deposited in the bank of their choice. Students can enroll in direct deposit through Compass.
- The University will not be responsible for the loss of property on or off-campus although it strives to safeguard students' property on campus.
- Students are expected to pay for books at the beginning of the semester. Books, supplies, and other items available at the University Bookstores may be paid for with cash, check, Master Card, VISA, Discover, and American Express.
