Refunds, Credits, & Transfers

Refunds

We will refund your full tuition:

1. In the event that your course is cancelled due to low enrollment.



2. If you withdraw from a class at least three business days (72 hours) in advance of starting time, you may request a refund, minus a $10 processing fee. This excludes food and wine courses (please see below). If you elect to receive a course credit (valid for the next two terms), the $10 processing fee will be waived. The $6 registration fee is non-refundable, unless we cancel due to low enrollment.



3. Food and Wine Classes: In order to receive a refund or a credit for a food or wine course or a food or wine fee we must have at least five (5) business days notice in advance of the starting time of the class. No refunds or credits are given after this time.



4. Special events and lectures are non-refundable.



5. No refunds or credits are given for rescheduled classes or changes to instructors.



6. Refunds will not be given in cash. Credit card refunds will be processed within five to seven business days. Refunds issued by check will be processed within two to four weeks.

Course Credit

If you choose to withdraw from a class at least three business days in advance of the start date, you may elect to receive a full credit (food and wine fees excluded). Please note: credits are good for two terms only and are non-refundable. A verification letter with an issue date and credit amount will be mailed.

Transfers

1. You may transfer to any other class offered during the term prior to the second meeting of the class you are dropping, provided that there is space available in the class you wish to transfer to. This excludes transfer from one food or wine class to another. No refunds are given for price differences, but any additional amount can be applied to another course in the same term.



2. We regret that no transfers can be granted after the second session of your class.
