Does Haverford levy any fees for withdrawal from a program?
The College, in conjunction with the Student Study Abroad Advisory Committee, has approved charging a fine of $500, as well as any unrecoverable expenses paid by the College to the program. This fine will be charged to all students withdrawing from programs past the set Haverford deadlines. The reason for doing so is because students have withdrawn at the last moment, causing the loss of an entire year’s tuition and room and board fees, which the College had paid to the approved programs. Such withdrawals jeopardize the relationship Haverford has with these programs to insure acceptance for future students. In addition, late withdrawals have an impact on administrative offices at Haverford, such as the Business Office, Registrar, Housing, Admissions, etc.
