Refund Policies

The $150 tuition deposit, which serves as the official enrollment agreement, is non-refundable.

Other tuition and fee payments are fully refundable if enrollment is cancelled by the end of the 10th school day.

After the 10th school day, only tuition is refundable; fees and other charges are non-refundable. Tuition refunds are prorated from the first day of the academic term:

  • 100% of tuition & fees is refunded/credited from the 1st through the 10th school day
  • 70% of tuition is refunded/credited from the 11th through the 14th school day
  • 50% of tuition is refunded/credited from the 15th through the 18th school day

The first school day of the academic term may be prior to the start of the course. Refund calculations are based on term start dates, not individual course start dates. For courses not on a regular term schedule or for refund information specific to your enrollment, contact the Business Office or reference the applicable Academic Calendar on the GSON website: https://www.barnesjewishcollege.edu/Departments/Registration-Office/Academic-Calendar-and-College-Catalog Course Audits will not be refunded after the 10th school day of the academic term.

Refunds of credit balances are processed in accordance with all regulations. As funds arrive and are posted to the student account, refunds of credit balances are processed. Refunds generally take two weeks from the date funds are posted to the student account to the date the direct deposit/check is mailed. Direct deposit processing preparation and mailing is handled by BJC’s Accounts Payable department. Full payment of the student’s balance is due at the time of withdrawal.
