Refunds

Policy and Procedures

Winthrop University strives to refund to students any monies due to them as a result of an overpayment to their student account in a timely fashion. Students are encouraged to sign up for Direct Deposit.

If a refund is a result of Title IV funds, a refund will be processed no more than 14 days after disbursement. 

Withdraws

Students who withdraw from Winthrop may be due a refund, depending on the date of the withdrawal and the source of the payments made. Students will be refunded the full amount due, once all financial aid funds are reimbursed in accordance to any federal and state policy. This process can take up to 45 days to complete.

Winthrop University follows CHE's guidance to apply the same institutional refund policy for students who withdraw. South Carolina Grants, CAP funds, LIFE LIFE Enhancement, Palmetto Fellows & Palmetto Fellows Enhancement, will be adjusted by the same percentage that tuition is reduced (e.g. 50%).
