University Business Regulations
Business Office
Located on the lower level of the Padour Walker Administration Building, the Business Office serves as the center of the university’s business and accounting functions.
Business Policies
Students are not eligible to attend classes until registration has been approved by the Registrar and the Business Office. Registration may be refused to any student whose previous term account is not paid in full. No refund of charges will be made to any student suspended or dismissed from the university. Registration may be cancelled for any student who is delinquent in his/her payments.
A transcript or diploma is not issued to a student who has failed to pay off any indebtedness to Doane University.
At the discretion of university administration, a transcript may be released for a currently enrolled student entering graduate or a professional school who has a balance on his/her account, provided the student is current with the payment plan.
A student is held responsible for damage to university property, and is either billed for the cost thereof, or the amount is deducted from the room deposit.
Doane University will not impose any penalty (including the assessment of late fees); deny access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities; or require the student to borrow additional funds because of the student’s inability to meet his or her financial obligations to Doane due to the delayed disbursement of funding from the Department of Veterans Affairs under chapter 31 or 33.
Refunds
Registration constitutes a financial contractual agreement between Doane University and the enrollee. If a student withdraws from the university prior to the official start of a term, all tuition and fees are refunded. After the term begins, a student who withdraws is refunded a portion of tuition and fees for all classes in which the student enrolled on or after census day. (Census day is listed on the university calendar as the last day for registration.) The amount of the refund and the manner in which it is calculated depends upon the student’s status at Doane University.
Tuition and fee refunds are generally based on the last documented date of attendance or the official withdrawal date. For a student who does not officially withdraw, the refund is generally based on the last date of class attendance, as determined by the university. Refund percentages are listed below for each school location.
Refunds are not made for a student dropping an overload, credits or classes, or a student dropping from full-time to part-time status after census day. A student adding credits after census day which result in an overload, is billed for these credits.
Direct deposit for student refunds
Doane encourages all students to enroll in direct deposit for their student account refunds. Students can enroll in direct deposit through their Self Service at https://cmvcprod.doane.edu/Student. Direct deposit allows for faster deposit of your refunds without the hassle of picking up and depositing a paper check.
Student Tax Information (1098-T)
The University will generate online 1098-T statements by January 31st each year.
IRS regulations do not require generation of 1098-T forms for non-degree or international students.
