* In order to qualify for in-state tuition, applicants must have proof of Massachusetts residency. Residency is defined as six continuous months of permanent primary domicile prior to the start of semester. A resident must intend to continue to live in Massachusetts indefinitely and be prepared to verify such residence. Individuals with nonimmigrant or nonpermanent residency visas will not qualify for Massachusetts residency status.
**Insurance costs are based upon current rates and are subject to change.
ALL TUITION AND FEE RATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.
When a student drops or withdraws from a course, processing, instructional and other costs must still be met by the college. Therefore, during Fall and Spring semesters* refunds for official withdrawals from credit courses are adjusted as follows:
Withdrawal up to the first week of classes:
- Students who withdraw from all their courses will be assessed a $25 administrative fee.
- Students who drop a course, but still are registered for one or more courses, will receive 100% refund of tuition and fees for course that was dropped.
Withdrawal during the second week of classes:
- 70% refund of cost of attendance
For example:
3-credit course at $150 per credit equals $450; 70% refund = $315
Technology/Lab Charge $100; 70% refund is = $70
Withdrawal during the 3rd and 4th week of classes:
- 25% refund of cost of attendance.
For example:
3-credit course at $150 per credit equals $450; 25% refund = $112.50
No refund on Student Services Charge and Technology/Lab Charges.
After 4th week of classes:
Please check current Semester Schedule for specific dates and further information.
* This refund policy is for courses offered over 15 weeks in the Fall and Spring semesters only. For the Summer semester refund policy, or for accelerated courses refund policies, please refer to the applicable Semester Schedule or our website at www.middlesex.mass.edu.
IMPORTANT: To be eligible for a refund students MUST notify the Student Information Center in writing, in person or by calling 1-800-818-3434. Official Course Withdrawal forms are available at each campus Student Information Center. Lack of attendance, course abandonment, etc., does not constitute course withdrawal.
