Credit Balance
Credits generated as a result of withdrawal shall be refunded after the official date of record or earlier upon student request. Credits resulting from credit card payments shall be refunded to the same credit card. All other refunds are coursed through HCC Eagle Card.
Amount of refunds for withdrawals are determined in accordance with the Drop and Withdrawal Refund Schedule based on total semester fees. If the student is under a Payment Plan, any remaining installment payments due are deducted from the refund amount. Any reduction in the balance due to a withdrawal will be adjusted on the final payment.
Course withdrawal does not release the student from the obligation to pay any balance owed to the College. One hundred percent (100%) refund of ALL tuition and fees will be made ONLY when a class does not make or a college error is involved.
