Enrollment Confirmation Deposit Refund Policy
Enrollment Confirmation Deposits (ECD), once paid for undergraduate, graduate, and professional school students to confirm their first quarter of enrollment, are non-refundable.
The ECD is applied toward tuition and fees assessed for the quarter in which the student has been offered admission. If you need further information and contact details, please log in and review your Official Tuition Charge Statement.
Refunds by Campus
The refund or waiver processes differ by campus and by student level.
Graduate Students
Applies to graduate students at all three campuses. The ECD is non-refundable. If you want to enroll in your program for a different quarter than the one you were offered admission to, please contact your academic department.
Academic Departments
Programs can petition the Graduate School to confirm enrollment on behalf of a student without paying the ECD (enrollment confirmation deposit). This petition cannot be requested for applicants planning to attend on an F1 or J1 visa. Please refer to the Graduate School Policy 3.1: Graduate Admissions 3.1.4 Enrollment Confirmation on Behalf of a Student.
