Students who are considering taking a leave of absence or withdrawing from their programs or who are at risk of an administrative withdrawal or program dismissal should take note of the withdrawal and refund policies to determine their financial obligations upon leaving the program. Please see Billing Due Dates and Refunds for details.

Students who leave their programs for any reason and receive Title IV funds (including federal direct unsubsidized loans and TEACH grants) may be required to return a portion of funds that have been disbursed to their account upon exiting the program. For more information about the process concerning the return of Title IV funds, please see Return of Federal Financial Aid (Title IV).

If students leave their programs for any reason and have tuition balances, balances will be prorated according to the refund policy and calendar. The outstanding balances are the responsibility of the student. Financial obligations must be resolved as soon as students cease enrollment with Relay. Unresolved outstanding balances will be transferred to a collections agency as early as 30 calendar days after exiting the program and may impact student credit scores.

Students who are considering a program transfer or change of program may also have a change in federal aid–eligibility status, a change in institutional financial aid received, and/or a change in tuition.
