Refund Petition Form

Minimally, each petition must include the student’s name, student ID number, birthdate, UMKC email address, petition term and year, course name and numbers, and a statement describing specifically what is being requested, statement of any extenuating circumstances, why the request should be honored, and supporting documentation of the events described.

决定由注册和记录办公室的指定官员做出,并将完全基于任何和所有相关文件.

Decisions will only address whether an adjustment of charges will be made. 成绩分配和其他学术问题不在程序范围内,应向学院院长提出.

Notification of a decision will be sent via email.

 

所有申请必须提交给注册和记录办公室,并且必须符合以下一项或多项标准才能被考虑和批准:

  • Written documentation of an illness, accident, injury, or situation which could not be influenced, planned for, or prevented by the student and which subsequently caused a change in the class schedule, thus changing the assessment. 这一规定特别排除了学生在注册时所知道的静止的条件或慢性疾病,以及涉及学生就业的情况.
  • 学生真诚地依赖指定的大学官员提供的信息,涉及截止日期的确凿情况的书面文件, or the official’s interpretations of the text of a University document or publication, and was consequently misled or mistaken about its terms.
  • In individual cases and when it is in the best interest of the student and the institution, 注册和记录办公室的指定官员可以批准在其他标准中未说明的例外情况.
  • Generally, 未能通过Pathway完成注册交易将不作为考虑上诉的理由. Students are ultimately responsible to verify that registration transactions are completed.

Additional refund petition information

医学博士课程的学生因缺课而无法完成整个学期的课程, withdrawal, 或与医学院分离的学生可以通过注册和记录申请调整教育费用.  学费调整的数额取决于退课日期以及课程与大学学期计划的吻合程度.

  • 学生退出符合UMKC学期时间表的课程,遵循UMKC学期课程退款政策.  More can be found on the Cashiers Office website.
  • Students withdrawing from coursework not coinciding with the UMKC semester schedule, such as four-week and eight-week courses, 如因请假未修课程,可否申请调整学费, withdrawal, or separation.  UMKC注册记录办公室将对调整申请进行审查,并对每4周不上课的学生按每年医学院学费的1/13(1/13)分摊学费.  在四周课程中注册超过5个工作日或在八周课程中注册超过10个工作日的学生将被收取整个课程的费用. 

An education fee adjustment can impact a student's financial aid and loan status.  For instance, UMKC may be required to return a portion or all of the federal financial aid received, which could cause the student to have a balance with the University.  强烈建议学生在提交申请之前与UMKC财务援助办公室和医学院财务素养顾问会面,以审查教育费用调整请求的影响. 

学生只有在获得批准的休假情况下,才能申请调整学费, withdrawal, or separation as determined by the School of Medicine.  学费调整申请必须先由学生提交医学院评估委员会审核批准.  然后,评估委员会将连同评估委员会批准的休假一起向注册和记录办公室提交教育费用调整请求, withdrawal, or separation documentation.
