Please review Wentworth’s semester-based tuition proration schedule located below. After the add/drop period ends, all students who withdraw from Wentworth during the semester must complete the Voluntary Withdrawal Form located on My Wentworth. The completed form must be emailed to the Registrar’s Office at registrar@wit.edu. Residential students must also submit a housing cancellation form.

IMPORTANT: Non-attendance does not constitute withdrawal. Students who register for classes but do not attend are fully responsible for any balance incurred. Tuition and fees will not be adjusted on the student’s account until the Registrar’s Office receives an official Voluntary Withdrawal Form from the student.

Involuntary Leave, Suspension or Dismissal

The proration policy does not apply to students asked to leave Wentworth involuntarily during an academic semester or term.   Students on interim suspensions, involuntary leave or dismissal are eligible for a prorated dining charge only, based on the last date of enrollment.

Questions about tuition prorations can be directed to the Student Accounts Office at 617-989-5043 or to studentaccounts@wit.edu

Housing & Residential Education: Room and Meal Plan Proration

A residential student who withdraws from the university before or during the first four weeks of the semester will be eligible for a reduction of charges (less housing down-payment) in accordance with Wentworth policy (terms are in the housing agreement). Students who are assigned to housing are fully responsible for any balance incurred until a housing cancellation form is submitted and approved, regardless of if they have moved in or not. No adjustments will be made after the fourth week of the semester. Housing & Residential Education sets the final prorated amounts for room and meal plans. Daily room rates are calculated based on the semester room rate divided by the number of days within a semester.

*Note: All residential students are required to sign a housing agreement, which outlines additional terms, and is a legal and binding agreement with financial obligations. Students cancelling their housing agreement may incur a housing agreement release fee and/or may forfeit a housing down-payment, as outlined in the housing agreement.

Students may also request a change in their meal plan before or during the first four weeks of the semester through the meal plan change request form. No changes to meal plans will be made after the first four weeks of the semester.

The Tuition Proration policy is based on the terms in the Wentworth Academic Catalog

Financial Aid and Return of Funds

Students should be aware that withdrawing from the semester may cause them to owe more money than staying enrolled in the semester. Students who withdraw from a course or withdraw from the university during the term may not be eligible for the entire financial aid award offered to them and are strongly urged to consult with the Financial Aid Office to discuss the impact withdrawing classes may have their eligibility for aid in the current and future semesters and their loan repayment.

Students who withdraw from school or cease attendance and are unofficially withdrawn before completing 60% of the enrollment period may be required to repay all or a portion of the financial aid funds back to the Institution, the Department of Education, state governments, agencies, loan providers, and other non-University grantors of scholarships and awards.

Up through the 60% point in each semester, a prorated schedule is used to determine the amount of Federal financial aid funds the student has earned at the time of withdrawal and what funds need to be returned. After the 60% point of the semester, a student has earned 100% of the Federal financial aid funds they are eligible to receive during the semester.

Visit the Financial Aid Withdrawal and the Satisfactory Academic Progress page for more information.
