Student's Right to Cancel

All Campuses: Students have the right to cancel an enrollment agreement including any equipment such as books, materials, and supplies or any other goods related to the instruction offered in the agreement, if notice of cancellation is made within seven (7) calendar days (excluding holidays) of enrollment or by the seventh (7th) calendar day of the student’s first term, whichever is later.

Cancellation shall occur when the student gives written notice of cancellation at the address of the university shown on top of the front page of the enrollment agreement. Students can also do this by mail, hand delivery, or email. The written notice of cancellation need not take any particular form and however expressed, it is effective if it shows that the student no longer wishes to be bound by the agreement.

New and returning students may be admitted during this period provided they attend at least one scheduled class during the Add/Drop period. 

Students will not be admitted after the Add/Drop period without approval from the campus Executive Director and the applicable program Dean/Chair. Tuition adjustments will not be made after the first week of the term.

Returning students who do not return as expected or whose last date of attendance is within the add/drop period will be considered a cancellation for the purposes of assessing tuition and fee charges. This applies to all re-entries and students returning from a leave of absence.

California Campuses only: If the student cancels the agreement, the university will refund 100 percent of the amount paid for institutional charges, with a deduction for equipment not returned in a timely manner in good condition, within 45 days after the student’s notice of cancellation is received.

Florida Campus only: If the student cancels the agreement, the university will refund 100 percent of the amount paid for institutional charges, with a deduction for equipment not returned in a timely manner in good condition, within 30 days after the student’s notice of cancellation is received.
