Refund Policy
According to state regulations, students must withdraw from each course before 10% of the course to be eligible for a refund. To be eligible to receive a refund you must officially withdraw from classes by the deadline [all deadlines are listed in your MyGWC account in your Student Class Program (Web Schedule Bill)]. Official withdrawals, by the refund deadline, will result in a credit to your student registration account.
Refund Procedures
Use any one of the following methods to officially withdraw from your course/s:
- Log on to your MyGWC account and select the Add/Drop Courses option from the Student Tab.
- Mail a request via U.S. mail (request must be postmarked by the U.S. Postmaster, on or before the refund deadline date).
- Come in person to the Admissions Office.
*Students are responsible for verifying all withdrawals.
If you are withdrawing from all your classes and wish to receive a refund for ALL fees, including material fees and parking, you must do the following ON OR BEFORE THE DEADLINE DATE, for each of the courses being dropped.
- Withdraw from classes.
- Return parking decal (if purchased) in person or by mail. The Parking Decal must be returned or postmarked on or before the earliest refund deadline.
If you are withdrawing partially (i.e., one or two classes): You will be eligible for refund for enrollment and materials fees for classes dropped by each class deadline.
Cancelled Classes: If a class is cancelled by the college, registration and material fees for that class will be refunded the third week of the term. The parking decal must be returned within 14 days of the class cancellation date if the student wishes to be refunded for the parking decal.
Refund Schedule
REFUNDS WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY PROCESSED - Effective August 11, 2010 refunds will be processed every Wednesday beginning the first week of registration of the semester in which the fees were paid and each week thereafter until the end of the term. Once you have officially dropped your courses by the refund deadline, you will see a credit balance on your account for fees paid for those courses. Most payments made by credit card through your MyGWC after July 1, 2010 will automatically be refunded to the credit card used for payment. For payments made prior to this date, or payments made in person, via check, cash, credit card or money order, refunds will be issued via check and mailed to the address the Admissions Office has on file. Please verify that your address on file is correct. You can update your mailing address via your MyGWC, under the Student Tab, and then click on Self Service – Personal Information – Update Addresses.
*All refunds will be issued by check or credit card. No cash refunds will be issued.
