Cancellation and Withdrawal Policies

Cancellation Policy:

In order for any refund to be given, we must be notified in writing BEFORE the institute begins. If a registration is cancelled for any reason, the individual or organization making the original tuition will receive:

  1. a full refund, less an administrative fee of $25, if the cancellation request is received in writing before June 10, 2008.

  2. a refund of 50%, if the cancellation request is received in writing after June 10 but before July 7, 2008.

  3. no refund for a 'No Show' or for a cancellation request received after July 7, 2008.

Withdrawal Policy:

Students who register for a professional development course, but who wish to discontinue, must withdraw from the course formally and must complete the withdrawal before the first 40% of the class meetings have been held. Students who wish to withdraw after this time period must formally request a late withdrawal using the late withdrawal form. The grade of "W" may not be awarded after this date except by special permission of the Dean of Graduate Studies, and only in those cases when continued enrollment in the course would be detrimental to the student's health or has been made impossible by circumstances beyond the student's control.
