All tuition and fee charges listed in this catalog and in any registration materials issued by the college are subject to change by action of the Trustees of the City University of New York without prior notice.
Students who now live in New York State but have had an address out of the state must submit proof of New York State residency. New students submit their documentation to the Admissions Office and continuing students to the Registrar’s Office. Applications for proof of New York State residency can be obtained in the Office of the Registrar, Room 217 Hunter North, Hunter College, 695 Park Ave., New York, NY 10065. If, at the time of registration, proof of New York State residence has not been approved, students must pay out-of-state tuition; if acceptable proof is submitted and subsequently approved by the Registrar’s Office during the semester, the tuition will be adjusted accordingly to the in-state rate.
Please note: Veterans who are not New York State residents are charged the same tuition rate as New York State residents for a period of 18 months from the first date of attendance at a CUNY college.

CUNY Policy This policy relates to all students who withdraw from courses prior to the 1st day and through the 4th week of class. The refund policy is as follows:
Federal Title IV Funds/Pro-Rata Refunds Students who completely and officially withdraw or unofficially withdraw from ALL their class(es) and received Federal Financial Aid are subject to a Return of Title IV Funds Calculation. The college will calculate how much Title IV aid has been earned by the student based on a period of attendance. The unearned portion of the Title IV funds must be returned to the US Department of Education by the college and the student. It is recommended that all students who have financial aid and plan to withdraw from classes seek the advice of the Office of Financial Aid before taking any action.
