Cancel/ Withdrawal Policy

 

A student attending for the first time who intends to withdraw from the University during the first term he/she is registered should submit a cancellation form to the Director of Admissions. Students who withdraw from the University during their first term on or after the day of the term start, and up to the start of the fourth week for A and B session courses or the ninth week for C session courses will be considered a “cancel”. A student may only “cancel” once regardless of how long between terms of enrollment, degrees, or levels. Readmit students are not eligible for a cancellation. Cancellations and withdraws of international students is decided by the International Student Office. For “cancel” students, the transcript does not reflect enrollment in any courses, charges are reversed, and any funds returned. Any stipend funds received by the student are owed back to Stratford University.

 

Cancel: A first-time student at Stratford University has the right to cancel their Enrollment Agreement by contacting the Admissions Office; first-term students have the option to defer their enrollment to a future term.  If a first-time student selects to cancel, they will be required to submit a new admission application to attend a future Term. If a first-time student cancels within the first four weeks of session C and the first two weeks of sessions A and B, they will be dropped from all classes, and all term fees will be de-assessed. Full tuition paid will be refunded except the non-refundable application fee and activity fee. Any withdrawals for the first-time student after week 4 for session C and week 2 of session A and B, withdrawal policy will be applied, and you will receive a “W” grade.
