Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee

Tuition Appeal Forms are for students who are requesting a refund, credit or balance waiver of their tuition charges due to extenuating circumstances that occurred during a given term. Grades received and recorded on the student’s transcript will not be affected by this process and will remain as part of the student’s academic record.

The Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee will consider requests for adjustments to tuition charges when a student can document extenuating circumstances such as:

  • Student Illness
  • Illness of immediate family member
  • Death of immediate family member
  • Military deployment
  • Change in employment schedule beyond the student’s control
  • Verifiable Advising Error

In all cases, the situation must have interrupted your ability to:

  • Adhere to the standard drop or withdrawal procedures.
  • Attend class(es) for a substantial length of time.
  • Complete the semester

Exceptions to this policy do apply.

Appeals must be received within sixty days from the end of the term in which the course was offered. Appeals older than that will be denied. The College considers the decision of the Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee final.

Grading, class assignments and other academic issues are not within the scope of this committee. Please contact your instructor, department chair, or academic dean.

Students should be aware that if a Tuition Appeal is submitted and they have received Financial Aid, their Aid may be impacted and they may potentially owe money to the college. We strongly suggest you meet with a Financial Aid Counselor before you file an appeal.

To obtain a copy of the Bursar Tuition Appeal Form visit the student accounts website or contact the office directly at 914-323-5266.

Residence Halls Fees

Room and board charges for the Fall and Spring semesters apply for the two periods beginning when the residence halls open at the beginning of each semester through the end of each final exam period. Students wishing to remain in the residence halls beyond the Fall and Spring semesters, most notably during the Intersession period and during the summer, must obtain permission from and register with the Office of Residence Life and pay additional fees. All students residing in the residence halls during the Fall and Spring semesters must participate in the College’s board program. All first-time freshmen students residing in the residence halls must participate in the 19-meal plan during their first year of residence.

Admissions Deposit

To reserve a place at the College, all new students must submit an admissions deposit, which is credited to their account for their first semester. This deposit is not refundable.

Library Fines

Students are responsible for the prompt return of items borrowed from the library. Items may be renewed in person or at the library's web site (http://www.mville.edu/library/). Students are charged a daily fee for items that were not renewed and replacement and processing fees for lost items. Students are also charged for items that they ordered from other libraries that they did not retrieve.
