Fees

Refunds

For Occupational Extension classes, a 100% refund shall be made if the student withdraws prior to the first class meeting. A 75% refund shall be made if the student withdraws from the class prior to the official 10% point of the class.  In either case requests for refunds must be made by completing a Continuing Education course withdrawal form, these forms are available in the Continuing Education Office (B-105). No refunds are granted for Community Service and Self-Supporting courses once the classes have started. For classes canceled by the College, a full refund shall be made.  You do not have to request a refund in these cases. Please allow 3 - 5 weeks for processing refunds. No refunds shall be made after the 10% point of the class.

Details of these charges are available in the Continuing Education Office. This provision is waived if course repetition is required by certification or licensing standards.
