Students Called to Active Military Duty Policy

  1. Students who are unable to complete a semester because they are called to active United States Military Duty shall, upon verification, be granted the option of a refund or credit of tuition and fees. With respect to any health insurance fee, the refund policy is subject to the concurrence of the institution's insurance carrier.
  2. Any students who have received any form of Financial Aid, including a full or partial scholarship, or student loan, or who expect to receive such, should contact the Financial Aid Office.
    Students shall receive non-punitive withdrawals in all courses from which they are required to withdraw.
  3. Verification shall be provided by furnishing the Associate Dean of Enrollment Services/Registrar or the Veterans’ Services Coordinator with a copy of the Order to Active Duty within one week (7 days) of receipt of the Order.  If the Order is not in writing, the student may sign an affidavit attesting to such Order, which includes an address or telephone number where the institution can verify the Order and furnish the affidavit to the Associate Dean of Enrollment and Student Services/Registrar or the Veterans’ Services Coordinator within one week (7 calendar days) of receipt of the Order.
  4. The College President or designee may waive or suspend any institutional policy or regulation that negatively impacts students in their withdrawal or subsequent readmission to the institution, due to a call to active duty.
  5. The college, upon request of a student, will assist the student in filing mitigating circumstances forms with external State or Federal agencies (E.g. Veterans Affairs) in an attempt to prevent overpayment charges being made against the student.
  6. Any student required to withdraw due to being called to active duty shall be given priority in enrollment in the program of his or her choice, upon return to the institution for the two semesters immediately following his or her discharge from active duty.
