A. If a student is taking most or all classes online, or in the event Stevens makes a decision to move all courses and programs online to respond to governmental or health mandates, Stevens will continue to fulfill its academic mission and will not refund tuition dollars. Like most colleges and universities, revenues from tuition and fees alone do not cover the full cost of Stevens’ delivery of academic and co-curricular programming, including the necessary investments for financial aid and other student support services. We rely on additional funding sources such as private gifts, endowment returns and cost support from sponsored grants to balance our budget each year. With a move to a remote learning environment, Stevens’ most significant educational costs, including salaries for faculty and staff, continue at the same level. We are proud of the resilience and adaptability that our students, faculty and staff have demonstrated in making the successful transition to remote teaching and learning.
