The only way to get a 100% credit of your tuition and mandatory fee charges is to drop your courses by the add/drop deadline. If you remain registered past the add/drop deadline, you are no longer eligible for a 100% credit of tuition and mandatory fees. See thewithdrawal refund schedulefor details about pro-rated credits of tuition and mandatory fees when you withdraw completely from the semester.
