Refund and Tuition Responsibility Policy
The Conservatory uses federal guidelines to determine refunds for new and continuing students according to the schedule below. These funds are disbursed by the Business Office. New and returning students who petition the Office of Academic and Student Affairs in writing by noon on the dates below are eligible for refunds as long as their balance has been paid in full (as stipulated: see Tuition and Fees). Students who are administratively withdrawn from the Conservatory will not receive a refund for any portion of their tuition and fees paid.

After completing 60% of the term, students will be responsible for all tuition and fees. Continuing students who leave active status without notifying the Office of Academic and Student Affairs are subject to an administrative fee. Funds from federal programs will be returned to those programs based on the federal funds’ guidelines. The Registrar will determine the number of days.
