Tuition Assistance Return Policy
Davidson-Davie recognizes that active duty members may not always be able to complete their classes, due to unforeseen military commitments. Department of Defense policy requires a return of Tuition Assistance funds, when a class is withdrawn, prior to completing at least 60% of the course. Returns of tuition assistance are prorated based on the percentage of completed class time, as noted in the schedules below. Students will be responsible for reimbursing Davidson-Davie for the amount of Tuition Assistance that Davidson-Davie refunds to the Department of Defense.
