Students who officially withdraw from all courses during a semester are entitled to a tuition and student housing refund based on their date of withdrawal. For an eligible student to qualify as “officially withdrawn” from ACHE, the student must complete an approved ACHE withdrawal form in order to begin the exit process. The following information also applies to students who are administratively withdrawn or dismissed from a program.

If any student has financial aid, the return of Title IV aid process will be completed in accordance with federal regulations. This may mean the student will have debt owed to ACHE.
Debts Owed to ACHE
When a student has a balance due to ACHE for more than 6 months, the balance owed may be sent off to a third-party collection agency. This process may also have adverse effects on the student’s credit and overall credit score.
