Refunds

Refunds are processed approximately two weeks after the late registration deadline to allow for course changes and adjustments. Credit card refunds are issued to the credit card that was originally charged. Harvard is not responsible for fluctuations in international exchange rates or interest charges due to the timing of credit card refunds. All other refunds are by check, made out to you and mailed to the address on record. You should notify the school of any address changes either in writing or via online services to ensure correct delivery of refund checks.

Expedited refunds

If you do not plan to change or adjust your courses during the late registration period, you may request an earlier refund by sending an e-mail request to Student Financial Services (sfs@dcemail.harvard.edu) and typing “Refund” in the subject line. Please note: if you have paid by personal check, you must either wait 30 days from the deposit date of the check or provide front and back copies of the canceled check (obtainable from the bank) to Student Financial Services before an expedited refund is processed. You may log in to online services to check the deposit date.

Amount of refunds

The amount refunded for course changes depends on the date the change request is submitted online, postmarked, or delivered to 51 Brattle Street. You should keep documents as proof of submission of registration and course changes by the appropriate deadlines. See the withdrawal and refund schedule.
