Financial Aid

More about financial aid

To learn more about financial aid options, please click on the Link below.

Students become liable for all tuition and miscellaneous fees associated with all courses for which they are registered at the end of the add/drop period. If tuition is not paid in full by the end of the semester, all grades will be withheld and any monies paid to the university college will be non-refundable.

Cash paid in advance on student accounts may not be withdrawn with written permission of the individual or organization that originally made the payments. It is expected that such withdrawals will be rare.

In the case of a student’s withdrawal from a course(s), he/she must submit the completed withdrawal form to the Admissions and Registration Department. The effective date of termination of the student’s registration will be the date on which the form is submitted to the office and the processing fee is paid. There is no refund on withdrawals from a course. However, in exceptional cases where a refund may be applicable (see Refund Policy below), this will be calculated on tuition only.

Students who qualify and apply for refunds outside of the Add and Drop period, for example, in the case of an overpayment or where a sponsoring institution later provides funding for tuition prepaid by the student, will be charged a $35.00 processing fee. This will apply in all cases except for the situation of extreme emergency or personal misadventure, or where the refund relates to a scholarship recipient from the Cayman Islands Scholarship Secretariat. After the form is submitted to the Finance Department, it is reviewed and signed by the Assistant Accountant. Refund take 10-15 business days to process. Students will be notified via phone call or email that the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) has been completed. The EFT will be made payable to the student or sponsor who initially made the payment (i.e., parent/guardian or employer).
