There is a $35 non-refundable withdrawal charge if you cancel your enrollment in a course. Your request must be received by phone or in person five (5) working days prior to the course starting date in order to receive a refund minus the cancellation fee. Course refunds will not be made after the start of a class. Transfers are only permitted under instructor recommendation and before the third class begins.
