Policy on Tuition Refunds or Credit for Students Called to Active Military Service

Alabama State University students who are called to active duty during a term when they are enrolled will be counseled on the options they may pursue, depending upon when the call is received, may consider the following options:

• If it is not after 60% of the term, the student will have the option of withdrawing with full refund of tuition and proportionate refund of room and board.

• If the call to duty occurs close to the end of the term, the student may be permitted to take the final examinations early and receive full credit for the course(s).

• If it is late in the term and the student does not wish to complete the final examinations, he or she may opt for either receiving “incompletes" in the course(s) or withdrawing.

It is therefore, the university’s policy to take every reasonable step to ensure that the student is not penalized by the university as the result of the call to active military duty.
