** Note about Tuition Refund chart: When a student cancels after completing at least one lesson assignment but less than 50 percent of the graded assignments, the institution may retain the application fee and one-time registration fee of no more than 20 percent of the tuition (not to exceed $200) and library service fees, plus a percentage of tuition paid by the student in accordance with the following schedule:

Sample Refund Calculation: A student enrolls in a course where the Total Course Tuition Price is $6,400.00. If student withdraws from the course after completing 28% of the program, the student is entitled to a refund of $3,200.00 ($6,400.00 * 50%). The school shall make the appropriate refund within thirty days of the date the school is able to determine that a student has cancelled or has been terminated from a course. Students are not permitted to withdraw from a course after the original term end date. Exceptions must receive University approval. Students are not required to return any materials in order to receive a refund. If payment is due to Lakewood University, it will be deducted from the amount paid to the school if the student is paid in full. If a student is on a monthly payment plan, they will remain on the payment plan until the amount is paid in full. If you fail to make any payment within 10 calendar days of its due date, the University may cancel this Agreement. Your entire tuition obligation will become due and payable immediately unless you cure the default within 15 calendar days of our notice to you. If you have questions about the Lakewood University refund policy, contact the Student Services Department at 1-800-517-0857 Option 2.

** PLEASE NOTE: Students whose education is funded by a third-party entity (US Federal Financial Aid, US Veteran’s Administration, MYCAA, VRRAP) will not receive any payments related to a refund. The refunded amount will be sent directly to the funding entity. The calculation above is subject to change based on the student’s external funding entity.
