Tuition for Students on an Approved Medical Leave When a student is approved for a medical leave of absence either in the first or second module of a semester, he or she is charged full tuition for that semester. In the module of their last semester, he or she is not charged tuition (only fees) since the student is making up coursework that was paid for in a previous semester. The student would pay the entire fall semester (summer rotation, May - August and fall rotation, August– November) tuition at the beginning of the module they are in attendance and then would not pay for their last rotation in summer(May-August) because he/she would be making up the summer rotation in the next academic year. Tuition for Students Remediating Coursework If the student is required to retake coursework totaling more than 12 credits, during either of the modules, the student is responsible for the full semester tuition. If a student attends less than 12 credit hours in a semester they will be charged the per-credit hour fee.
