Registration

Importance of Proper Registration - Students must properly register and pay by the appropriate deadline for all courses for which they expect to receive credit. Students are cautioned that simply attending classes and completing course requirements does not entitle anyone to register after the deadline has passed or to claim credit for a course in which they participated as an unregistered or a deregistered student. Students must resolve all problems regarding registration with the Student Records and Financial Services Office.

De-registration - Students who do not comply with published tuition payment deadlines or who have other major obligations to the college may be de-registered, or automatically dropped, from the courses for which they have registered prior to the new academic period. They may also be blocked from receiving college services such as diploma and enrollment verification.

Deadlines - Courses may be added and dropped according to academic regulations. Please refer to www.alfredstate.edu/academics/academic-regulations. Courses dropped on or after the first day of classes shall be liable for charges based on the Liability Schedule below.

Liability Policy

All tuition and fee liabilities are calculated based on the date of separation as recorded in the Student Records and Financial Services Office. Students who will be separating from the college must file the appropriate paperwork with the Student Records and Financial Services Office. The last date of academic attendance will be used for students who unofficially withdraw by ceasing to attend classes.  The period midpoint will be used if the last date of academic attendance cannot be determined through our attendance monitoring process.  Following is a liability schedule based upon the "official" withdrawal date or date the class is dropped.  Students begin incurring charges when their scheduled courses begin. 

A student who is dismissed from Alfred State for academic or disciplinary reasons prior to the end of the academic term shall be liable for all costs for that term and shall not be eligible for a reduction of charges or a refund of payment made.
