Regis’s current policy is not to award institutional funds over the cost of tuition and fees. For example, if a student has a graduate assistantship and a tuition discount in one semester, Regis will reduce the discount, so that it does not go over the institutional charges. Students are not eligible for a refund greater than the amount of tuition. The discounted benefit will be capped at the amount of tuition for the semester the student is to receive both institutional benefits. Financial Aid will apply the graduate assistant tuition adjustment or tuition credit to your account each term.
