If a student enrolled in an associate program completes GEN-104, but does not establish attendance in a subsequent course, all charges for GEN-104 will be forgiven.

Changes to a student’s schedule may affect their financial aid. Call the Financial Aid Office for information.

Other Fees

Fees that are unique to a program are refunded at the discretion of the School responsible for the program. These refunds are granted according to the student’s attendance and when the fee is incurred by the School.

The Educational Resource Fee (ERF):

• Once attendance has been established in a course, the relevant amount of the ERF is non-refundable.
• The ERF is a $250 fee charged in the first course of a program, or the first course which is longer than    2 weeks. 
• If the student attends only the 1st course of the program, $150 of the fee will be refunded.
• No other ERF refunds will be granted.
