Exceptions to these policies may be made if a student withdraws from the university for reasons of hardship. These reasons are defined as (1) death of the student, (2) death in the student’s immediate family, (3) a medical condition that compels withdrawal upon recommendation of the Director of the Student Health Service, or (4) a mental health condition that compels withdrawal upon recommendation of the Director of Counseling and Psychological Services. The vice chancellor for student affairs must approve, and notify the university cashier’s office, of any refunds or account adjustments for hardship situations. The university cashier’s office will take appropriate action to make final settlement of the student’s account. Any other exceptions require approval by the chancellor.
