Program Policies
Procedure for dropping
If you need to drop a course, email your Program Specialist or support staff with your request that includes your reason for dropping. The email request stands in for your signature on the drop form. A signature (email request) is required because a drop may incur an administrative fee. Upon approval from an administrator, your course will be dropped and your account may be subject to the refund policy (see below). A Drop After Census form requires an additional form to be signed by your instructor, Department Chair and an administrator.
Refund policy
Please be mindful of the following deadlines and fees:
- 100% refund, less $25 administrative fee, if course is dropped before start date
- 65% refund, less $25 administrative fee, if course is dropped by census date
- No refund after census
Late fees and important dates
Late payment and late registrations fees will be applied in the event posted deadlines are not met. To avoid fees, make sure you are aware of all registration and payment due dates.
The standard late fee is $25. You may not enroll in courses for future sessions if you have a balance on your account. Contact the Program Specialist if you wish to discuss your specific situation.
