Withdrawals and Refunds
Self-Paced Courses
You may withdraw from an online self-paced course at any time before taking the final examination or submitting the final paper with no prejudice to your academic record. A withdrawal request form is included in the online course materials. You may also use the Withdrawal form located on our Web site. Once you have requested to withdraw from a course, you cannot be reinstated. You must fill out a new enrollment form and pay the full course tuition and fees to enroll in the course again.
Not completing a self-paced course
If you do not complete the course requirements by the end the six-month course completion period, your enrollment will expire and you will be dropped from the course. The course will be removed from your University of Illinois transcript if you do not finish it. Your tuition and fees will not be refunded.

NetMath Drop and Refund Policy
To drop or withdraw from a course, students must submit a completed Change of Status Form. Students who wish to withdraw from either program may do so at any time during the course timeframe. Tuition refunds and/or credits are processed according to the pro-rata refund policy.
For high school students enrolled in a nine-month term, the refund period is based on a student’s course enrollment date; the percentage of tuition refunded decreases on a monthly basis.
For adult students enrolled in a 16-week term, the pro-rata tuition refund timeframe is calculated as follows: A student's start date is set as two weeks after our office officially registers a student in a course (the two-week delay between registration and course start date in 16-week sections is intended to allow time to acquire software and resolve technical issues). The end date is the date that our office receives a student’s Change of Status form. Students in 16-week courses have 10 weeks from their enrollment date in which to drop or withdraw from a course and still receive a partial tuition refund.
The pro-rata refund policy is always effective regardless of whether a student did or did not begin a course. The administrative course fee is non-refundable.
