Enrollment Deposit Once an application has been accepted and the applicant has received an Offer of Admission from AUK, the applicant is required to confirm his/her enrollment in AUK by submitting a KWD 100 non-refundable Enrollment Deposit to the AUK Finance Department. The deposit will be credited to the student’s first tuition amount. If the AUK Finance Department does not receive the Enrollment Deposit, it is considered that the applicant will not be attending AUK, and he/she cannot register for courses. Legal Contract By registering for AUK courses, a student is entering into a legally binding contract with AUK and is obligated to pay all related tuition and fees, including any non-refundable fees. Payment of Fees and Charges Before classes begin, students are expected to settle accounts or to have made satisfactory arrangements for payment of their fees and charges. Fees and charges are payable in the AUK Finance Department. AUK accepts the following methods of payments: • Cashier’s checks • Debit cards (an additional service fee will be charged) • Credit Cards • Cash 42
AMERICAN UNIVERSITY of KUWAIT 2007-2008 ACADEMIC CATALOG Deregistration All registered students who have not paid their tuition fees or made financial arrangements with the Finance Department, will be automatically dropped from their courses at the end of the day that tuition and fees are due. Non-Payment AUK reserves the right to recover the total amount due to it, including any additional costs incurred as a result of a collection process or legal action, and, if necessary, to forward financial obligations owed to AUK to a collection agency and/or to initiate legal proceedings. Tuition Fees Refund Students may apply for a refund of tuition as follows. 1) Dropping courses per the provision outlined in the University Catalog, 2) Withdrawal from AUK per the provision outlined in the University Catalog, or 3) Due to “extenuating circumstances”. “Extenuating circumstances” may include death of an immediate family member, call to military duty, legal proceedings, and medical illness requiring hospital stay. Students petitioning for a refund based on extenuating circumstances must: a) Withdraw from courses by completing a Withdrawal from AUK Form and submitting it to the Office of the Registrar. b) Provide a letter of request and verifiable written documentation supporting the request to the Director of Finance. Students will be receiving their refunds either in Cash or Checks in their names. Holds The AUK Finance Department will place a “hold” on those students who fail to meet their financial obligations to AUK, including on-time payment of their respective payment plan. A “hold” prevents students from, among other things, collecting their AUK transcripts and registering for future classes. Payment Options Full Payment All tuition and fees are paid on the day of registration. This means that students pay in full the tuition and fees upon completion of their registration. For example; if a student registers for 15 credit hours (each credit hour is KWD 175), he pays KWD 2,625, plus KWD 115 for other fees (Library Fee, Student Activities Fee and Technology Fee) for a total of KWD 2,740. After consideration of his enrollment deposit, his total fee to pay at registration is KWD 2,640. 43
