Generally, students will not be charged tuition and fees for classes officially dropped prior to the published drop deadline each term. All tuition and fee payments may be refunded for the credit hours and fees associated with each class dropped before or during this period. The deadline for dropping classes without incurring charges is published each term in the UAB Class Schedule.

Students who completely withdraw from school on or after the first day of the term will be charged a $30.00 withdrawal fee. Students who reduce or increase their course load will be charged a $15.00 drop/add fee. The drop/add fee is charged each time a drop/add form is processed. In addition to the $15.00 drop/add fee, students will be charged the tuition and fees associated with course(s) added to their schedule.

Any credit balance resulting from a change in course load during the first two weeks of the term will be distributed in accordance with the Order of Return of Title IV Funds Policy.
