PHC Preparatory Academy Drop and Refund Policy
Requesting to Drop a Course: A student who wishes to drop a course must make the drop request online via his or her student account. Once logged in, the student will find the name of the course to be dropped listed under “Current course enrollments” and may click the “drop this course” link beside the course name.
Refund Eligibility: Courses dropped prior to or on the course start date will be eligible for a 100% tuition refund. Courses dropped from the day after the course starts up to the tenth business day of the course will be eligible for a 75% tuition refund. After the tenth business day, no refunds are available. The registration fee is non-refundable.
2012-2013 Refund Eligibility—Key Dates:
- Start date for fall and yearlong courses: August 27, 2012
- End of drop period for fall and yearlong courses: September 10, 2012
- Start date for spring courses: January 7, 2013
- End of drop period for spring courses: January 18, 2013
Please be aware that the drop period for yearlong courses is aligned with the fall-semester drop period. If a student withdraws from a yearlong course after the fall drop period ends, but before the spring semester begins, please know that the student will not receive a prorated refund for the spring semester. Tuition is nontransferable between courses.
Drop and Refund Processing: When a student’s drop request is being processed, the student and his or her parent(s) will receive an email confirming that the request has been received, along with a statement of the total amount to be refunded (if applicable). In the event that there is a refund, HSLDA will credit the original purchaser’s credit card account (to refund credit card tuition payments) or send the refund via check to the person who originally purchased the course (to refund check tuition payments). Please allow at least two to three weeks for the payment to be sent or processed.
Course cancellation: In the event that PHC Prep must cancel a scheduled course, all registered students will receive a full refund of the tuition for that course. If the cancelled course is the only course in which a student is enrolled during a given academic year, the $25 registration fee will also be refunded. Please note that this is the only occasion when the registration fee is refundable.
