Withdrawal Calculator
If you are withdrawing from all classes for the term, use the Withdrawal Calculator tool below to calculate your potential refund based on withdrawal date. For more information on add/drop deadlines, please visit the Northwestern University Academic Calendar. Contact Student Finance if you have any additional questions.
If you are dropping courses, but otherwise maintaining the rest of your enrollment, please see Enrollment Changes & Billing.
Select the applicable term to determine the potential tuition refund you can expect, if any. If the refund is not due to financial aid funds then the refund will be returned to the original source of payment.
Refund calculations apply to all undergraduate and graduate students except for those in the following schools and programs:
- Pritzker School of Law
- Kellogg School of Management EMBA
- Feinberg School of Medicine
- School of Professional Studies
School of Professional Studies undergraduates and graduates, all undergraduates in Summer, and visiting Summer Session students should use the SPS & Summer Session calculator. All other programs should contact Student Finance for information on their refund schedules.
