Withdrawal from course

    Hi,

    I started my MA in September and I am now considering dropping out. My main concern is what the financial implications would be.

    I paid the course fee (€2750 which includes a €500 deposit) when I registered. How much of this would I get back if I was to drop out?

    Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    I just wanted some info from people that have been in my situation before voicing my concerns with the university.

    I think I'm in the same situation. Thinking of dropping out but if I'm not going to get any refund I may consider trying to finish out the year? Let me know if you find out anything!

    'Students are not entitled to any refund once formally registered.'

    So the thing to do now is go to the Fees Office and/or the Registry and ask for yourself.

    btw that was a very cheap MA at 2750. I assume that was the first install
    ment that your parents paid?
