A student may withdraw (limit four withdrawals per student) from Atlantic University courses at any time up through the ninth week in the 12-week semester following the official start date of a course.

Students who withdraw within five days of enrolling in a course will receive a full refund.

Following this five-day period through the first week of the 12-week semester after the official start date of the course, the $50.00 withdrawal fee is required and a full refund on tuition is paid.

After the first week of the 12-week semester, the $50.00 withdrawal fee is required for all course withdrawals, and refunds are processed accordingly as detailed below.

Note: Students choosing a payment plan may owe money on the balance of the course tuition due and thus may not be eligible for a refund.
If the student is inactive in the classroom for more than two weeks, they may be Administratively Withdrawn (AW) from the course and the refund will be based on the student’s last day of activity.

All refunds will be paid out within 30 days upon receipt of the student’s email indicating a withdrawal from the course, up through week nine of the course.
Please see the catalog for a breakdown for more details.
