Refund Policy
The refund policy is determined by the SUNY Board of Trustees, and Purchase College adheres to it without exception. A full refund (including any nonrefundable fees) is automatically granted only if a course or program is canceled or closed to further enrollment by the College. To apply for a refund, complete and file an add/drop or withdrawal form.
Please note:
- The refundable tuition amount (excluding nonrefundable fees) is based on the tuition refund schedule and determined by the date the add/drop or withdrawal form is received—not by the number of classes attended.
- No refunds can be granted for any reason (including illness or other medical reasons) after the periods listed in the tuition refund schedules.
- Refunds for credit card payments are automatically credited to the cardholder’s account. Refund checks are mailed to the student at the address on the add/drop or withdrawal form. Please allow up to 6–8 weeks for refund check processing.
Nonrefundable Fees
Lab fees are nonrefundable after the add/drop period. All other fees are nonrefundable unless the course or program is canceled or closed to further enrollment by the College. The following refund schedules apply only to tuition.
Please note: A $25 nonrefundable registration fee, per student, is in addition to noncredit tuition.
