Registering for an ISI course creates a financial obligation. Prior to enrolling, check with your adviser to make sure your chosen course will meet your needs. If you are a current University of Idaho student, you will need to complete the Course Approval form before your registration can be completed. The form is found on the Independent Study in Idaho website: http://www.uidaho.edu/academic-affairs/independent-study/forms

Courses dropped within 45 days of registration qualify for a refund. There are no refunds after 45 days, regardless of the student’s progress in the course. Administrative fees are nonrefundable.
Full Course Credit Fee Refund: The drop request must be received by the ISI office within 21 days from the registration date.
50 Percent Course Credit Fee Refund: The drop request must be received by the ISI office between 22 and 45 days from the registration date.
The course credit fee will be refunded minus $25 for each assignment/exam submitted. Refunds will be processed according to the original payment method. Cash payments will be refunded by check.
