The published UMUC Europe withdrawal policy will be used to determine any refund as well as your grade for the course

• If you withdraw for personal reasons, you will be required to repay the TA. Repayment procedures will be initiated by GoArmyEd, and will take place through an automated feed between GoArmyEd and Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS).
• If you withdraw for military reasons, unit commander information will be required along with the military reason for withdrawal. The request is subject to verification. If the military reason is approved, TA repayment will be waived. All information and transactions occur online through GoArmyEd.

Remember, until all documents for an undergraduate official evaluation or for graduate admission are received at Heidelberg headquarters from the issuing institution, your student agreement cannot be posted to the portal. Please request your documents as soon as possible so your ability to use Army TA is not interrupted.
