TMCC Tuition Refund Policy

A student who does not attend any class prior to the census date shall be considered a “no show” and a 100% tuition refund will be issued for the classes not attended (if a student has made cash payments on their account). TMCC shall use the last day to add a course or drop without record a class for each semester as the census date for determining student enrollment for the fall, spring and summer terms. The student will still be responsible for the Registration Fee.

If a student attends a class, she/he will be considered to be enrolled in the course.

Students who pay their tuition in cash payments and do not receive aid will be refunded at the following rates:

100% if the student withdraws from the institution prior to or on the census date. The student will still be responsible for the registration fee.
If a student completely withdraws from all classes after the census date, they will still be responsible for the Registration, Course and Technology fees. Students will receive a refund based on the following schedule:
