Policy
PURPOSE:
To describe the fees that will be assessed when a) a student enrolls late b) a student withdraws and then reactivates the enrollment for a given semester/term.
APPLIES TO:
Lawrence/Edwards Campus students
CAMPUS:
Edwards, Lawrence
POLICY STATEMENT:
Fees can be associated with enrollment activity (see the Comprehensive Tuition & Fee Schedule for a current list of fees). Late and reactivation fees may be assessed once the first published day of the semester/term has occurred.
Late Enrollment Fee
A late enrollment fee is assessed for initial enrollment that occurs under one of the following conditions:
- Enrollment in a standard full-term course for the fall, spring, or summer terms: assessment begins at 12:00am on the first published day of classes.
- Enrollment in a short/minimester course: assessment begins at 12:00am of the first published day of the specific class added.
The late enrollment fee is assessed once per semester/term.
Reactivation Request
When a student chooses to withdraw from a current or future semester, the student's account is inactivated. If the student decides to re-enroll for that semester, the student must first submit a reactivation request to the Office of the University Registrar. There is no fee associated with reactivation.
Exclusions or Special Circumstances:
Enrollment related fees may be waived in accordance with the Petition for Tuition and Fee Refund policy.
