12. Cancellation & Refund Policy for Seminars
Refunds are calculated based on the period of enrollment and the total course time (clock hours). The effective date for refund purposes is the earliest of either the last date of attendance or the date we receive written notice from the student.
If tuition and fees are collected in advance and the student does not attend the seminar, a $100 fee will be retained by the school. Should a student fail to attend, withdraw, or be discontinued before completing the seminar, they will be refunded the pro rata portion of tuition, fees, and other charges. This is calculated based on the number of class hours remaining after the effective date of termination relative to the total number of class hours in the seminar.
Full refunds of all tuition and fees will be provided in the following cases:
- The student is not accepted by the school.
- The seminar is discontinued by the school, preventing the student from completing it.
- Enrollment was obtained through misrepresentation in advertising, promotional materials, or by school representatives.
For students called to active military service, they may choose one of the following options for each program:
- If tuition and fees were paid in advance, they can receive a pro rata refund for the portion of the program not completed and a cancellation of any unpaid charges.
- Alternatively, they can receive a grade of “withdrawn-military” and have the right to re-enroll in the program or a similar one without additional tuition or fees, within one year of discharge from active duty, except for any previously unpaid balance.
- Finally, if they have completed at least 90 percent of the coursework and demonstrated sufficient mastery, they may be assigned an appropriate final grade or credit.
Refunds for extra expenses, such as electronic course materials, books, tools, or other supplies, will be handled separately from tuition and academic fees. Students are not required to purchase these materials until needed but may access them online beforehand. Once purchased and accessed through the online portal, no refunds will be provided.
All refunds will be processed within 60 days after the effective date of termination.
