The College will refund at least 90 percent of the tuition charges if the student drops between the first day of classes and the end of the first 10 percent (in time) of the period of enrollment for which the student was charged.

The College will refund at least 50 percent of the tuition charges if the student drops between the end of the first 10 percent (in time) and the end of the first 25 percent (in time) of the period of enrollment for which the student was charged.
