Exceptions: Healthcare and Trips & Travel students have their own specific refunds. Please note there is "no refund" for transferred classes. Student can only transfer one-time. Because Community Education courses are self-supporting, we count on registration fees for our instructors' salaries and to cover supply and equipment costs. Therefore, we cannot issue refunds once the course begins. A full refund is automatically granted if class is cancelled by the Community Education Office. Q: What happens if a class is cancelled? A: If Community Education cancels a class for any reason, those pre-registered will be notified by telephone or email, provided they have given us a daytime number and email address, and payment will be refunded in full.
