Refund and Withdrawal Policy

By registering for classes, you accept responsibility for paying the entire session regardless of the method of payment and/or attendance in class. CCAD does not have an automatic withdrawal policy. Nonattendance does not constitute official withdrawal from one or more classes. To withdraw from a course and/or request a refund, you must submit your request in writing at least one week prior to the start date of the course or workshop. REFUNDS WILL NOT BE ISSUED AFTER THAT DATE. All refunds are issued as a check payable to the registered student. If applicable, it is the student’s responsibility to work out repayment with the person or party responsible for payment of tuition. Credit card accounts cannot be credited with a refund. Refunds are processed as a quickly as possible, but may take 4-6 weeks.

Financial Aid

Students who have not been formally admitted through the CCAD admissions process are considered nondegree-seeking students and are not eligible for
financial aid.

Supplies

Supplies and equipment vary according to the course. Supply lists will be provided on the first day of class. Most supplies are available at the CCAD supply store located in Kinney Hall. For store information click here.

Grades

Continuing Education courses are pass/nonpass. No letter grade is given. Students who must have a letter grade should alert the instructor at the first class.

Letter grades are issued for degree courses. Students who wish to register for a degree course but do not want a letter grade must express that they choose to audit the course at the time of registration. CE courses (courses that are designated CE in the course number) may not be audited. No audits will be processed after registration closes for the term.
