Semester Announcements
Refund Policy Summer 2026
NOTICE: Student enrollments are NOT automatically cancelled for non-payment of tuition/fees.
Responsibility for Tuition/Fees
Students who have enrolled/pre-enrolled are considered to be “officially enrolled” and are responsible for all tuition/fees incurred. If you choose not to attend the University, you must OFFICIALLY WITHDRAW with the Registrar’s Office. Complete withdrawal from the institution is the sole responsibility of the student and must be completed in person or in writing. Failure to officially withdraw or drop by the refund deadline may result in all F’s for the semester and owing all tuition and fees—this can impact your credit rating! Students who are reported as “never attended” in a course during the initial attendance certification period may be administratively cancelled from that course. The Administrative Cancellation Policy applies to courses a student is reported as “never attended” in where the student responds to the warning emails regarding non-attendance. Responsibility to officially withdraw or cancel enrollment remains with the student. Please contact the Registrar’s Office at (580) 745-2165 or registrar@se.edu for more information.
