Students only requiring Fall may cancel their academic year contract in Spring, provided that they meet certain criteria, such as graduation, suspension, military, or marriage, with official documentation. Otherwise, they will be penalized for breach of contract.  The Semester Rate is the amount charged each semester along with tuition. Payments are due based on the Bursar's schedule.
