Since i know date the refund is mail, i was wondering if i can use that to stop the counting.

i basically want to know how many days took for the student to get the refund.

First do not use the 'Today' function. It is well documented as unstable.

Second, you can do something like this.

Case( not IsEmpty(DateMail) , DateMail - StudentWithDrawDate, Status( CurrentDate) - StudentWithDrawDate )
