Ohio Residency Guidelines
Ohio residency guidelines can be found at http://www.ohio.edu/admissions/residency/ .
Current Tuition and Fee Rates
Current tuition and fee rates can be found at http://www.ohio.edu/finance/bursar/tuitionfees.cfm .
Registration Fees
Tuition and fees are assessed based on the number of credit hours of enrollment, Ohio residency, campus, and program. Tuition includes an instructional fee and a general fee. A nonresident surcharge is assessed to students who are not residents of the State of Ohio. Tuition excludes academic course-related fees. The online Course Offerings system identifies sections of courses that require additional fees.
Several colleges assess a technology fee to their students. Additionally, the University assesses a Student Information System/Network fee to all students. Technology fee schedules can be found at http://www.ohio.edu/finance/bursar/tuitionfees.cfm .
You are responsible for any University communication sent to you at your official University email address and/or to the mailing address on file with the Office of the University Registrar.
Late Registration Fees
Unless your registration has been delayed by the University, you will be charged a fee for late registration after the Friday of the second week of the semester. The fee is $40 the 3rd week, $60 the 4th week, $80 the 5th week, and $100 the 6th week.
Monthly Payment Plan
Ohio University provides a monthly payment plan for students. The plan consists of four (4) monthly payments per semester for fall, spring, and summer semesters. This plan is not a loan program, and there is no interest charge on payments. For additional information visit the bursar’s website at http://www.ohio.edu/bursar/mpp.cfm .
Refund of Fees
University Refund Policy for Withdrawal.Ohio University refunds fees or credits your account 30 days after the date of withdrawal, according to the following schedule:
- If you withdraw officially from the University (cancellation of registration) before the first day of classes, you are entitled to a 100 percent refund of registration fees if your fees were paid in full.
- If you withdraw officially from the University through Friday of the second week of the semester (see the academic calendar http://www.ohio.edu/registrar/calendar.cfm ), you are entitled to an 80 percent refund if your registration fees were paid in full.
- If you withdraw from the University after the Friday of the second week of the semester, you are not entitled to a refund of registration fees.
If you withdraw from the University before full payment of fees is made, you are considered indebted to the University for the amount determined according to the refund regulations. A hold will be placed on your records until your debt is paid.
Refund Policy for Reducing Course Load. If you drop credit hours before or through the Friday of the second week of the semester, you are entitled to receive a 100 percent refund of the reduction when such changes result in a reduction of fees. For example, if you are registered for 12 hours and drop a three–hour course, you will receive 100 percent of the difference in tuition for dropping from full time to part time. However, if you have 15 hours and drop to 12 hours, it does not affect the tuition, because the standard tuition rate applies to a course load of 12 through 20 hours. Course load reductions made after the Friday of the second week of the semester will result in no refund. Corrected registration that results in increased hours could increase tuition. Further information regarding the refund of fees can be obtained from the Office of the Bursar.

Withdrawal Information for Financial Aid Recipients
Federal Student Aid
Students receiving aid fro Title IV programs and withdraw or stop attending all classes for their enrollment period are subject to the U.S. Department of Education’s Federal Return of Title IV Funds calculation. The Title IV programs that are covered by this law are: Federal Pell Grants, Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grants, Academic Competitiveness Grants, National SMART Grants, TEACH Grants, Stafford Loans, PLUS Loans, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity grants (FSEOGs) and Federal Perkins Loans.
The amount of assistance that you have earned is determined on a prorata basis based on the date of withdrawal or last date of attendance reported on the grade report. For example, if you completed 30% of your payment period or period of enrollment, you earn 30% of the assistance you were originally scheduled to receive. Once you have completed more than 60% of the payment period or period of enrollment, you earn all the assistance that you were scheduled to receive for that period.
The requirements for Title IV program funds when you withdraw are separate from any Ohio University refund policy. Therefore, yo may still owe funds to cover unpaid institutional charges. You may also be charged for any Title IV program funds that Ohio University is required to return. Please see Refund Information for more information.
State of Ohio Aid
Policies for the return of State of Ohio aid when a student withdraws are determined by the Ohio Board of Regents.
Institutional Grants
Policies regarding eligibility when a student withdraws vary depending on the type of institutional grant awarded.
