The college reserves the right to make the final decision on all refunds.
It is the student’s responsibility to know the refund dates for their courses.
Non-attendance does not constitute a drop in a course nor qualify students for a refund.
Failure to drop a course properly may result in a failing grade.
It is the student’s responsibility to drop themselves from a course.
No refunds will be granted when a student is dismissed or suspended from the college for disciplinary reasons.
