Voluntary Withdrawal from the University
Students wishing to voluntarily withdraw from the University must first confer with their academic advisor. The student must inform the University in writing of this decision via the Enrollment Status Form. A student is considered enrolled if registered at the census date of the respective semester. After that date, refunds for absence, withdrawal, or dismissal from the University will be made in accordance with the refund policy as outlined in the Financial Information portion of the catalog. A student must complete the official Enrollment Status Form to be considered for any refund. 

Administrative Withdrawal from the University
Any student may be administratively withdrawn from the University if they have not been actively enrolled in classes for more than one calendar year.

Additionally, a Bay Path Online student may also be administratively withdrawn from the University if they do not attend all of their courses within a given session, and do not respond to the resulting Enrollment Status Form that is sent to them by the Office of the Registrar.

The Office of the Registrar will notify a student of their administrative withdrawal via Bay Path University email. Once a student is withdrawn from the University, the Student Financial Services Office will be notified, and any remaining balance owed to the University must be paid. If a student is receiving financial aid and has taken out loans, Bay Path University is obligated to report the withdrawal to the National Student Clearinghouse. This will initiate repayment of all outstanding student loans. If there is any remaining balance on a student’s Bay Path University account, the student will be held responsible. The student must contact Student Financial Services to determine if a remaining balance is owed.
