Withdrawal and Refund Policy

Students who withdraw from LAU New York after enrolling may be eligible for a tuition refund based on the official date of withdrawal. The official withdrawal date is the date the student submits a written withdrawal request to LAU New York and receives confirmation from the appropriate university office.

The $250 enrollment deposit is non-refundable and is applied toward the student’s first semester tuition bill.

Refunds apply only to tuition paid directly to LAU New York. Fees, housing costs, room and board, transportation, books, supplies, insurance, and other third-party or personal expenses are non-refundable unless otherwise stated in writing.

Withdrawal from the program does not relieve the student of any financial obligations incurred before the official withdrawal date. Any outstanding balance remaining after the refund calculation must be paid by the student.

LAU New York reserves the right to update this policy for future semesters. The refund policy in effect for the semester in which the student is enrolled will apply.
