Official withdrawal or dismissal from a course or from the University entitles a student to a refund of tuition according to the following schedule. No fees are refundable. A student may receive a 100 percent refund if withdrawal occurs during the first calendar week in which the academic term begins. Otherwise, refunds will be made as follows:

Second week: 80% refund
Third week: 60% refund
Fourth week: 40% refund
Fifth week: 20% refund
After fifth week: no refund
 

Students attending Rush for the first time who withdraw during their first academic term are entitled to a pro-rated refund of tuition and fees through the fifth week of attendance. Refunds will be shown as credits on the student's account. Normally, refunds are processed within two weeks.

Students wishing to appeal the published schedule of refunds must appeal in writing to:
