Tuition Insurance
As a supplement to the College Refund Policy, we are pleased to offer an insurance program, The Tuition Refund Plan (TRP), through A.W.G. Dewar, Inc.

This Plan supplements the college refund schedule and provides more generous refunds throughout the entire term. If you withdraw from classes due to a personal illness or accident, this Plan will return up to 75% of your insured tuition and fees. Enrollment forms with complete details are mailed to students in July or application may be completed online. The TRP provides coverage (according to the terms of the policy) for tuition, room and meal charges. Benefits under the Tuition Refund Plan can provide a valuable resource for students who need to withdraw for medical reasons. The Tuition Refund Plan is provided as an option for students and parents. Alverno College does not administer this plan nor have any discretion in approval or rejection of refunds.

Please contact A.W.G. Dewar, Inc., at 617-774-1555 or you can access their Web site at www.collegerefund.com for more information or to apply.

Dropping Courses or Withdrawing from the College
In the event that it becomes necessary for you to drop courses or withdraw from the College, it is your responsibility to contact your advisor or the Registrar's Office to complete the necessary forms. The date on which you make this contact will determine the amount of tuition adjustment, if any, you will receive. Students must officially drop all courses when not attending. Non-attendance does not drop you from the course and you will still be responsible for all tuition and fees associated with courses.

When a course is dropped, the following adjustment schedule will be used:

You Pay
Before Classes Begin
0%
# of days after official start date of the class:
Day 1 through 7
15%
Day 8 through 14
40%
Day 15 through 21
60%
Day 22 through 28
80%
Day 29 and after
100%

Students receiving Financial Aid: Your financial aid is based on your financial need and the amount of semester hours you are enrolled for. Because changes in your semester hours may affect your financial aid eligibility, you are encouraged to contact the Financial Aid Office before you adjust your semester hours.

Students dropping some courses but remaining enrolled in other courses are subject to the above refund schedule. Financial Aid awards are changed through the first two weeks of the semester, but not after that point. If you drop a class after that point, your financial aid will remain the same, but you may be subject to Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards. Please consult the Financial Aid Office on this.

Students completely withdrawing from school are subject to the above adjustment schedule. Additionally, you are also subject to Federal, State and Institutional refund policies. If you withdraw before the 60% point of the term, financial aid funds will be returned to their original funding source. You may wind up owing the College money at this point. Please consult with your Advisor and the Business Office before you withdraw from the College.
