University Enrollment Policies and Procedures:
GENERAL TERMS
Each student is accepted with the understanding that
he/she has registered for the entire course of study at
the graduate level. The student agrees to report to
Keiser University, located in Florida, and/or to log
on online on or before the program starting date, and
maintain regular attendance at the University during
each term registered for and abide by all the Rules
and Regulations of the University. The University
reserves the right to dismiss any student for maintaining
poor academic standing, excessive absences,
failure to comply with the regulations of the
University as stated in the current literature, or for
non-payment of tuition and fees when due. A late
charge of five (5) dollars is added to any invoice ten
(10) days or more overdue. Students are liable for all
late fees, reasonable attorney’s fees and all other
costs and charges necessary for the collection of
unpaid fees. Students must supply personal items,
such as textbooks, pens, paper, and notebooks.
Students are held responsible for all misuse and/or
breakage of equipment in the University’s facilities.
GENERAL POLICY
University policies have been formulated in the best
interest of students and the University. Changes in
University policies are rarely made during a school
year, since plans for each season are made well in
advance. However, the University reserves the right
to make changes in tuition, fees, refund policy, curricula
or any phase of its programs, where, in the
opinion of the administration, students and/or the
University will benefit. Such changes may be made
without further notice. The University also reserves
the right to cancel any classes which do not have a
minimum number of five students enrolled. Courses
which are delayed are rescheduled within 16 weeks
of the original date or the University will make a full
refund of all monies paid to the University for them.
After successful completion of the program, students
receive their graduate degree from the University.
Although Keiser University provides employment
assistance, it cannot promise or guarantee
employment.
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
Occasionally, students have concerns and/or problems
that need to be addressed. Students can confidentially
discuss their problems at any time with
their instructors, the Student Services Department or
anyone on staff at the University. Additionally,
Campus Presidents maintain an opendoor policy to
meet student needs. If the administration has to take
disciplinary measures against a student, he/she may
appeal the decision to the Grievance Committee,
which is made up of impartial staff member, and a
student representative. If a student dispute is litigated,
and the student receives an unfavorable decision,
the University will be entitled to any reasonable
attorney’s fees incurred in the legal proceedings.
ARBITRATION
It is agreed that, in the event the parties to this agreement
are unable to amicably resolve any dispute,
claim and/or controversy arising out of or relating to
this agreement, or if a claim is made by either
against the other or any agent or affiliate of the other,
the dispute, claim and/or controversy shall be
resolved by arbitration administered by the
American Arbitration Association under its
Commercial Arbitration Rules. If this chosen form
or method of arbitration is unavailable, or for any
reason cannot be followed, a court having jurisdiction
hereunder may appoint one or more arbitrators
or an umpire pursuant to section 682.04 F.S. Each
party shall have the right to be represented by an
attorney at any arbitration proceeding. The expenses
and fees of the arbitrator(s) incurred in the conduct
of the arbitration shall be split evenly between the
parties to the arbitration. However, if the University
prevails in the arbitration proceeding, the University
will be entitled to any reasonable attorney’s fees
incurred in the defense of a student’s claim(s). Venue
for any proceeding relating to arbitration of claims
shall be in the county wherein the institution is located.
This agreement cannot be modified except in
writing by the parties.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

graduate degree, students must (1) Successfully

listing is found in the Keiser University catalog;
(2) Complete all documentation, records and
files as necessary; (3) Fulfill all financial obligations
to the University.
CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY
Tuition and Fees Disclosure
Tuition is computed on the assumption that a student
will remain throughout an academic year. Since a
place in class has been reserved, tuition is only
refunded in accordance with the University’s
Withdrawal Policy. Students withdrawing from the
University must comply with the proper clearance
procedures as outlined in the catalog. Refunds
and/or reductions in indebtedness are made solely at
the option of the University for withdrawals necessitated
by conditions beyond the student’s control,
such as an emergency acceptable to Keiser
University. Refunds and/or reductions in indebtedness
are processed after all required approvals are
documented on the Withdrawal Form. Students are
obligated for all charges (tuition/ fees/books/supplies/
laptops) for the term and/or semester they are
currently attending, plus any prior account balance.
A semester equals two terms (16 weeks), with one
term equaling eight (8) weeks of instruction. An
administrative fee of $100.00 is charged when a student
withdraws prior to the end of a term and/or
semester in which he/she is enrolled. Students, who
have withdrawn and wish to reenter, are charged a
$150.00 reentry fee.
Return of Title IV Funds (R2T4)
A pro-rated portion of any Federal Tile IV funds
received are returned to appropriate programs for
students who withdraw prior to the completion of a
term in the semester that is prior to reaching the 60%
point of a semester. The formula for Return of Title
IV Funds (Section 484B of the Higher Education
Act) also specifies the order in which funds are to be
returned to financial aid programs. The return of
Title IV funds follows a specific order: (1)
FFEL/Direct Stafford Unsubsidized Loan; (2)
Subsidized Loan; (3) FFEL/Direct Grad Plus; (4)
Other Title IV Program (Not FWS).
