Financial Appeal

This process is designed to address extenuating circumstances that occurred during a given semester that prevented a student from receiving a partial or full refund for a course(s). Students may write a letter of appeal describing the reason(s) and justification for seeking an exception to the refund policy. The burden of proof shall be upon the student to prove his or her case by a preponderance of evidence in the written appeal. Be specific with extenuating circumstances, dates, the name of persons contacted and any steps you took to address the problem at the time it occurred. Attach appropriate documentation from your instructor, medical provider or other professionals as needed.

Student submits the appeal to the Financial Appeal Committee by: Mail:

Fees

Late Registration Fee: $100 per course late fee registration for enrolling after the drop/add period.

All tuition remission students and consortium students must pay applicable fees such as graduation, health service, technology, lab and mandatory fees. (Fees are subject to change without further notice.)

Refund checks are issued to students when excess funds exist on their accounts after

crediting Title IV funds. Refunds for student loans and other Title IV funds are processed and mailed out to students 10 days after funds are posted to the student's account. To request a refund of another type of overpayment on your account, you must complete a refund request form and send it to Student Accounts. The refund request form can be found online at

http://www.ben.edu/campus_resources/studentaccounts/forms.cfm. Direct deposit for

student refunds is also available. Students can enter and modify their direct deposit

information using the following navigation. Self Service > Payroll and Compensation > Direct Deposit. Complete instructions can be found on the MyBenU login page under Faculty/Staff: How To Add/Update Payroll Direct Deposit.

All drops or withdrawals are dated as of the date in which they were submitted to Enrollment Services (Ben Central). The tuition refund policies are listed above. The summer terms have a separate tuition refund policy. Whether or not you attend classes, the period of attendance will be computed as the number of days from the scheduled date of opening class in each term to the date shown on the drop or withdrawal slip. See the "Financial Aid" section for information regarding the use of financial aid in the case of a withdrawal.

The boarding fee is pro-rated from the date of confirmation of registration to the day of withdrawal. Students who withdraw from campus housing within 30 days of the beginning of the academic term will be charged for room fees on a pro-rated basis. No refunds are given after 30 days of the term have expired.

Students who are expelled or suspended from the University during the course of an academic term will not be allowed any financial credit on tuition charges. Similarly, resident students who are expelled or suspended from campus housing and from the accompanying food service plan, either permanently or for a temporary period during the course of an academic term, will not be allowed any financial credit on room and board charges.

Courses which require the leasing of off-campus facilities from off-campus agencies require pre-payment in full. Therefore, NO refunds can be made of the tuition or lab fees for such courses.

Courses requiring professional liability insurance require the purchase of such insurance from off-campus agencies demanding pre-payment in full; therefore, NO refund can be made for the professional liability insurance charge. For such programs as the Federal Student Loan

and the State Monetary Awards, cash refund of credit balances will not be made until funds are received from the agency in question and the required procedures are completed.

Other Policies

1. Enrollment shall be considered as signifying knowledge of all conditions, rules and regulations and shall be deemed as acceptance thereof.

2. The University shall not be responsible for any damage or loss of personal property from any cause whatsoever.

3. Bills for University services or monetary sanctions such as library fines, residence hall fines, parking fines or extra student health charges must be paid in full 10 days prior to final examinations for the semester.

4. Students are not entitled to receive recommendations, degrees, honors, grades or transcripts of credit until all bills are paid and National Direct/Defense Student loans and Perkins loans are in current status.

5. In the event of default in the payment of any amount due, and if the account is placed in the hands of an agency or attorney for collection or legal action, the student agrees to pay an additional charge equal to the cost of collection including agency and attorney fees and court costs.

6. Payments made by personal check, business check or online by ACH will be subject to

a 14 day hold to allow for clearance of funds. This hold will not be lifted until 14 days have passed, regardless of your scheduled registration date unless proper

documentation is provided from your bank showing the payment has cleared your account. Any holds on your account must be satisfied before registration for the upcoming term will be allowed.
