Refund Policies
Yale Summer Session will refund tuition and room and meal payments according to the terms listed below. No refunds will be made unless we received appropriate written notification. A Yale student's Student Financial Services account will be credited.
Note: For Yale x Flatiron program, please visit the program page for refund policy.
Tuition
A full tuition refund will be issued if a student notifies the Summer Session Office in writing, prior to the start of the session in question, of his or her intention not to attend the session. (The start of the session is defined as 8 am on the first Monday of the session.) For all other tuition refunds to be processed, students must complete the appropriate course change or withdrawal form in person in the Summer Session Office, 55 Whitney Avenue, Suite 420. Visiting students withdrawing from Yale Summer Session must return their ID cards upon withdrawal in order to receive a refund.
- If a student drops a course or withdraws entirely from Yale Summer Session between 8 am Monday and 4 pm Friday of the first week of classes of a given session, 100% of the tuition will be refunded.
- If a student drops a course or withdraws entirely from Yale Summer Session by 4 pm Friday of the second week of classes, 50% of the tuition will be refunded. Yale College students receiving financial assistance for summer tuition will forfeit 50% of nonscholarship tuition in the second week.
- No tuition will be refunded after the second week of classes in either session.
Residential Program Fee
Once a student is in residence, he or she will be entitled to a residential program fee refund only by vacating the room before the end of the first week of classes. No refunds will be made after this time. Before a refund will be issued, the student's room must be inspected and the student must return the Yale ID card (for visiting students) and room keys to the Housing Manager in the Summer Housing Office.
