What is the tuition refund policy?

If you have a change of plans before the first day of class, students can withdraw from the program for a full tuition refund. After the first day of class, tuition is refunded on a per diem basis starting with the first day, June 24, 2024, through July 26, 2024. The per diem tuition rates for 2023-2024 are listed on Stanford's student services page.

Example: a full-time undergraduate student who withdraws from Stanford on the 10th day of the Summer Quarter would be assessed $3,741.30 (10 days x $374.13) in tuition. The student would be eligible for a refund of $16,835.70 ($20,577 - $3,741.30) minus any scholarship or loan funds that would be returned to the source of those funds.
