SUMMER 2027 Updated: 11/4/2026 August 6. Refunds for non-standard-length classes are based on 10% of calendar days elapsed. Drops cannot be backdated. There is no refund for dropping individual classes unless dropped by census date of each class. Financial aid is calculated based on the combined enrollment for the entire summer semester and is disbursed at the beginning of the first term of enrollment. Any subsequent changes in enrollment may require a recalculation of financial aid already disbursed. All courses registered for the term are included in determination of financial aid eligibility and satisfactory academic progress. • Attendance confirmation is not required in summer. • To earn aid, you must start your classes. • Classes taken from other SD Board of Regents universities may have different start and end dates. Refunds Refunds for dropping a class while maintaining enrollments in other classes will be calculated as follows. CLASS LENGTH: June 1 – July 2 Drop by June 3, 2027 Refund 100% July 6 – August 6 Drop by July 8, 2027 Refund 100% June 1 – August 6 Drop by June 6, 2027 Refund 100% If classes do not follow these dates, refunds are calculated at 100% for drops within the first 10% of calendar days within the class period. Return Check Policy It is understood and agreed that upon presentation of your check as the form of payment for any Northern State University transactions, you are entering into a contractual agreement that obligates you and holds you responsible for any and all fees and expenses incidental to the principal obligation on any check that is returned non-payable. Returned checks, state surcharges, sales taxes and incidental fess may be debited from your account electronically or by way of paper draft. Withdrawals/Refunds Drops: Most summer classes are considered non-standard length classes. In order to receive a 100% refund for a nonstandard length class, the class must be dropped by 10% of the calendar days of the class (Census date). Students may drop individual classes via Self-Service Banner or by contacting the Registrar’s Office (Dacotah Hall 103) until 70% of the course has passed (Drop date). Courses dropped by Census date will not appear on the student transcript and will no longer be calculated in attempted credits. Courses dropped after Census date but by the Drop date will remain on the transcript and will receive a withdrawal grade. Undergraduate students receive WD grades for their first 6 individual drops. After the 6th a WFL grade is posted, which counts as an F. Zero credit courses and co-requisite labs will receive a W grade. Students should consider this when deciding to drop a course. Dates for our most common terms are listed in Important Deadlines & Dates. Students are responsible to know and adhere to the Census and Drop dates of each class they enroll in. Withdrawals: The Registrar’s Office must be notified if a student decides to withdraw from all courses at all six South Dakota public universities. Self-Service Banner will not allow a student to drop all classes for a term, so it is essential that the Registrar’s Office is notified to ensure proper processing. The student will be emailed a link to an online Withdrawal Form. The student’s official withdrawal date will be the date the Registrar’s Office is notified that a student is not returning. A student may not withdraw if it is past the Drop date of any enrolled class. Eligibility for a refund will be
