Federal law requires the university to automatically refund any credit balance from a student account that was created by Title IV financial aid. Title IV aid is Stafford, Perkins, and Plus loans as well as SEOG, Pell and Contract grants. Credit may remain on your account to be applied to the next semester charges if you indicate so in writing. However, this credit can only be held on the account during the academic year (loan period) in which the aid was awarded.

You may withdraw this authorization at any time. Upon such notice in writing, Elon will refund any excess back to you within 14 days. Refunds of Federal financial aid to the Department of Education in the case of reduced credit hours or withdrawal will be processed in accordance with regulations related to excess funds from the disbursement of federal Title IV grants and loans.

Elon University reserves the right to add or drop programs and courses, to institute new requirements when such changes are desirable and to change the calendar that has been published. Unless otherwise indicated, such changes will be applicable to all students enrolled at the time the change is adopted as well as to all students who re-enroll after a period of absence. Every effort will be made to minimize the inconvenience such changes might create for students. Elon University reserves the right to increase overall tuition, cost per credit, education fees, and room and board charges on a semester basis.

The amount for tuition and fees for the 2023-2024 academic year has been set regardless of the method of instruction and will not be refunded in the event instruction occurs remotely for any part of the 2023-2024 academic year.
