Reimbursement Requests
Any credit balance left on a student account is applied to future charges unless the student requests a reimbursement by signing a Reimbursement Request Form.
Reimbursement Method
A reimbursement is made payable to the student, unless otherwise instructed by the student on the Reimbursement Request Form. A reimbursement wire transfer may be issued within two to four weeks from the date the request was received or the credit balance appeared on the student account, whichever is later.
Inactive Student Accounts
Any credit balance left on a student account that becomes inactive through graduation, withdrawal, or any other event is automatically reimbursed to the student within the account’s change of status. A reimbursement wire transfer is made to the student.
Termination Date
For refund purposes, the termination date for institutional withdrawal is the last date of actual attendance at the Institute by the student or the date of determination in accordance with the Institute’s withdrawal policy. Similarly, the termination date for withdrawal from individual courses is the date of receipt of the appropriate withdrawal form. Notice of cancellation or withdrawal should be given by completing the appropriate withdrawal form, whether it is withdrawal from the Institute or from specific classes for which the student registered.
If the student’s account remains delinquent for over 30 days, the Institute reserves the right to cancel the student’s registration.
Special Cases
In the documented event of prolonged illness or accident, death in the family, or other special circumstances that make it impractical to complete the program in which the student is enrolled, the Institute shall make a settlement that is reasonable and fair to both parties. These will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Application of Policy
Any monies due to the student shall be refunded within 60 days of the account’s change of status (i.e., the date when the Office of the Administration changes the status of a student’s account) or within 60 days from the date of receipt of payment, in the event that the date of such receipt is after the student’s last date of attendance.
If a student’s financial obligation is not fulfilled, the Institute is authorized to do the following until the owed monies are paid:
- Withhold the release of the student’s academic records or any information based upon the records.
