# 1.7 Withdrawal Overview (Texas)
While we’d be sad to see you leave the program, our team’s top priority is empowering you to make the educational decisions that are right for your family.
If you’ve found that OpenEd isn’t the correct fit for your student, you can initiate withdrawal directly through our platform.
***Stay informed:*** Make sure to read our [Withdrawal/Repayment Policy](http://opened.co/policies) before you start the withdrawal process!
### **Initiating Withdrawal**
After [logging in](http://opened.co/parents), click on the **Enrollment** tab from the lefthand sidebar.
In the top right corner of the page, click on the three vertical dots.
You'll see a **Withdraw enrollment** option appear.
Depending on how much of your program funds you’ve already used, you may be required to pay back a certain amount.
The withdrawal page will give you a full breakdown. It'll look like this:
**Important:** Your *final* required payback amount will be calculated when your request to withdraw is approved.
### **Completing Your Withdrawal Request**
Below the withdrawal calculation, you'll also find a **Detailed Payback Breakdown** outlining all of your reimbursements and direct orders.
At the bottom of the withdrawal form, you’ll be asked to fill in your email, phone number, and a reason for why you’re withdrawing your student.
Then, you’ll be asked to confirm that you’ve read our Repayment Policy.
Once you’ve finished those steps, click **Start Withdrawal**. That will send your withdrawal over to our team for approval.
#### ***Why do I have to pay anything back?***
The full program allocation of $2,000 for full-year Texas students is available to students who remain enrolled for the entire program year.
If you withdraw your student before the end of the year, your payback amount will be discounted by the total number of months that your student was enrolled.
#### ***How is my payback amount calculated?***
Your payback amount is the amount of your program funds that you’ve already spent minus your **participation discount**.
Your **participation discount** is based on the total number of months that your student was enrolled.
#### ***Example:***
At the time of withdrawal, John was enrolled for 6 out of 9 total program months – meaning that he completed 67% of the program year.
John's payback amount is discounted by 67% of the spending amount.
We’ll let you know as soon as we approve your withdrawal request.
***Still on the fence about withdrawing?*** [Please reach out to our team here!](https://opened.co/contact-form)We’d love to connect with you about how we can better support your student’s needs.
### **FAQs**
**Q: Can I withdraw my student after the school year has begun?**
**A:** Yes, you have the option to withdraw after the school year begins - but you may be required to pay back a certain amount.
If you decide to withdraw your student once the school year begins, please review our [Withdrawal/Repayment Policy](http://opened.co/policies) guidelines, as early withdrawal may require repayment.
We’ll let you know as soon as our team approves your withdrawal.
**Q: OpenEd has already reimbursed me for educational materials. Will I have to repay the program after withdrawing my student?**
**A:** Yes. If your student withdraws from the program *at any time prior to the last day of the school year*, you are obligated to **return** or **repay** the prorated cost associated with any courses, curriculum, kits, software, or technology received either directly from OpenEd or through our reimbursement process.
**Q: Why do I have a ‘payback amount?’ Why do I have to pay anything back?**
**A:** The full program allocation of $2,000 for full-year Texas students is available to students who remain enrolled for the entire program year.
If you withdraw your student before the end of the year, you will have to pay back a certain amount of the funds that you’ve spent.
Your payback amount will be discounted by the total number of months that your student was enrolled.
**Q: How is my payback amount calculated?**
**A:** Your payback amount is the amount of your program funds that you’ve already spent minus your **participation discount**.
Your **participation discount** is based on the total number of months that your student was enrolled.
**Q: I bought a new computer/device using my student’s program funds. Can I keep that device after I withdraw my student?**
**A:** Unfortunately no – any **new** computer, Chromebook, or iPad/tablet that costs over $150 will **remain the property of your student’s school of enrollment** for **three years.**
If your student withdraws from the program after year one or two, you will be asked to **return** the device *or* **repay** the **depreciated value of the device** (determined on a case-by-case basis).
