Dropping Courses
Please note, if you drop a course prior to Day 10 of the semester and become part-time, your tuition and fees will adjust according to the semester tuition and fee rates for the part-time credit level. If you drop a course after Day 10, and receive a "W" in the course, you are still financially responsible for the course. No tuition and fee refunds will be issued.

Summer and Winter Intersession Course Fee Withdrawal Tuition and Fee Adjustment Policy
Summer and Winter Intersession Withdrawal Tuition and Fee Adjustment Policy
A full tuition and fee adjustment will be issued if a class is dropped by the last posted day to drop for a given summer/winter session, less the non-refundable summer/winter enrollment fee (currently $65 for non-degree students and $45 for matriculated UConn students).
There will be no adjustments after the last posted day to drop for a given session. Final drop dates for all summer and winter sessions are posted on the Summer Session website and the Winter Session website.
Please note that withdrawal from a class may affect your summer or winter financial aid status.
It is your responsibility to initiate withdrawal from a summer or winter class. Non-attendance at classes or non-payment of fees does not constitute a withdrawal or relieve you of your financial obligation.
