Withdrawal
If you choose to withdraw your child from Minnehaha Academy, you will need to complete and submit the Official Notification of Withdrawal.
Tuition Refund Policy
Tuition will be refunded for students withdrawn from school for any reason based on the annual tuition charge, whether paid or to be paid, in accordance with this policy. Refunds will be determined by the withdrawal date according to the chart below. Reservation deposits are non-refundable and are credited to tuition for school attendance only. Flexible tuition applicants are the exception; they may be granted a reservation deposit refund if requested by the deadline stated in their flexible tuition notification.
| Withdrawal Date | Refund |
|---|---|
| Withdrawal Prior to July 1 | Forfeit Deposit |
| Withdrawal Between July 1st and July 31st | 90% |
| Withdrawal Between August 1st & the Start of School | 80% |
| Withdrawal Between 2nd Day of School & Week 2 of the School Year | 70% |
| Withdrawal Between Weeks 3-6 of the School Year | 60% |
| Withdrawal Between Weeks 7-10 of the School Year | 40% |
| Withdrawal After Week 10 | No refund |
The refund percentage applies to tuition only; mandatory student fees are nonrefundable after July 1st. No refund is provided after the 10th week of the school year. Parents will be held responsible for any balance remaining on their account after the refund is applied. All student accounts must be paid in full before official records, grade reports or transcripts are released.
This Refund Policy is not situational and applies to all withdrawals regardless of the reason for withdrawal. This policy enables the school to be paid for the expense incurred in matriculating students.
