Refund Policy
A student who officially withdraws (in writing) from a course prior to the first class meeting is eligible for a 100% refund. A student may be eligible to receive a 75% refund of the registration fee if the student officially withdraws (in writing) from the course after the class begins but prior to the 10% census date (10% of total course hours). A student would not be entitled to receive a refund if he/she withdraws after the 10% census date (more than 10% of total course hours) of the course. Courses offered as self-supporting are not eligible for a refund as these programs are funded by registration fees collected. Students are eligible for a 100% refund if the class is canceled by the College.
Course Repetition Policy
A special provision of the State General Assembly concerning course repetition became effective July 1, 1993. Students who take an occupational extension course more than TWICE within a FIVEYEAR period shall pay their cost for the course at a rate based on current contact hour value. Students shall be primarily responsible for monitoring course repetitions; however, the College shall review records and charge students full cost for courses taken more than twice. (Senior citizens who are legal residents of North Carolina and who wish to enroll in an occupational extension course will not be required to pay for taking the course twice. Senior citizens who take an occupational extension course more than TWICE within a FIVEYEAR period shall pay their cost for the course.) Students may repeat occupational extension courses an unlimited number of times if the repetitions are required for certification, licensure, or recertification.
