Tuition Refunds

Drexel University has established a tuition refund policy that allows a refund of tuition and fees when you withdraw from Drexel University or when you’re billed by credit hour and withdraw from a course(s). The refund is a credit to your student account and may result in adjustments to your financial aid. If a credit balance is created on your student account, the credit balance will be refunded to you.
