Graduate and Professional Studies (PS) students will receive a refund only if they formally withdraw during the Add/Drop Period.

Appeals must be emailed to studentaccounts@nihonnkazamidori.com14 calendar days of the official withdrawal date.

Appeals will be presented to and reviewed by the Financial Appeals Committee to determine if the student meets the criteria for a significant financial or physical hardship and should be granted a 50% tuition refund. The decision of the Financial Appeals Committee is final.
