The dates to drop a course with a refund are established for each semester and published in the academic calendar and in each semester's schedule of classes. Drop deadlines for "late start" classes can be found at FalconNet Online Services under Online Course Availability or on your Schedule and Fee Statement. Please check the dates carefully. Refunds will not be given after the deadlines.

Students who pay for courses by credit card will be refunded by crediting back that same credit card in approximately seven to 10 business days following the official drop. Students who pay for their courses by cash or check will be refunded through the Daytona State OneCard process. Each registered Daytona State student will automatically be mailed the Daytona State OneCard.

To receive your refund, you must activate your Daytona State OneCard at www.daytonastateone.com. During this process, you will choose between two options for receiving your refund. You may elect to have your refund directly deposited to your Daytona State OneAccount (funds will be deposited within one day or less), or you may elect to have your refund deposited to another bank account of your choice (funds will be deposited in two to three business days). For additional information regarding refunds go to www.daytonastateone.com or contact the Office of Student Accounts at (386) 506-3024 to speak to a Student Account Specialist.

Refunds will be based upon the following:

1. College Credit and Vocational Credit Courses
   1. A 100 percent refund will be given if a student drops a course(s) by the date published in the College's academic calendar. For classes that meet on the weekend only, students will have until the next business day following the first scheduled class meeting to drop with a refund.
2. Continuing Education and Lifelong Learning Courses
   1. Courses lasting one week or less - A 100 percent refund will be given if you drop a course before the first scheduled class meeting.
   2. Courses lasting longer than one week - A 100 percent refund will be given if you drop a course within five working days from the date of the first scheduled class meeting.
3. Student Appeals
   1. Appeals to drop with a refund after the published deadline must be based upon extraordinary circumstances beyond your control. Supporting documentation is required before the appeal may be considered. For additional information about student appeals, contact the Question and Answer Center. Appeal forms are available at all campuses.

Withdrawals for Tuition Purposes

Students who withdraw from a course will not be entitled to a refund. In addition, any outstanding balances for withdrawn courses must be paid in full prior to processing the withdrawal.
