Fee Refunds

Refunds for Summer Session are handled in the same manner as for other academic semesters. All fees except the Registration fee, ID fee, and Orientation fee are refunded to students who withdraw from MSU during the period of registration and before the beginning of classes, in which case the registration of the student is cancelled.  No refund of fees will be given for withdrawal from courses for which a "W" grade is given (see Drop/Add Regulations & Procedures page for more information about the "W" grade).

Refunds for financial aid in excess of your university bill for Summer Session will be available starting May 10th. Refunds for part-time students will start after the 3rd class day. Refunds for the balance of funds will be by Direct Deposit, or mailed to the student if the student has not signed up for Direct Deposit, provided you have completed all necessary documentation and signed all promissory notes and returned these materials to the Financial Aid Office.  Be sure your address(es) is current at the Student Accounts Office, Registrar's Office, or Financial Aid Office.  A refund will not be processed until bill confirmation has been done with the Student Accounts Office.

• Refunds for Drop/Adds
  Courses added are retroactive to the first day of class instruction for fee assessment.  No refund of fees will be made after the third day of instruction in a 4-week session, or the sixth day of instruction in a 6-week or intersession, or after the 13th day of instruction in the 12-week session, including dropped courses.
• Refunds for University Withdrawals
  After the beginning of classes, fees are refunded according to the date the student completes the university withdrawal form received from the Office of Student Success.

  The following special considerations will determine the amount of refund due, if any, for university withdrawal:

  • All refunds are based on the date of university withdrawal; whether or not a student attended class(es) has no bearing on the refund.  Refunds are further determined by enrollment in a 4-week, 6-week, intersession, or 12-week session.
  • Short courses are a part of the Summer Session and are included in the total credit load for fee assessment and refund determination.  No refund is made for dropping a course of two weeks or less in duration unless it is dropped prior to the beginning of the class.
