Financial Policies

Payment of Student Accounts

All student accounts are due upon enrollment. Students must pay accounts within 30 days of enrollment. If students cannot pay within 30 days, a payment contract will be arranged with the institution. All students are required to sign an enrollment agreement upon enrollment in the institution which will detail the amount owed for the course program and the payment terms.

The following fees and tuition will be charged by CWC:

Registration Fee (Non-refundable)	$200
Tuition for ESL (6 months)	$2400
Returned Check Fee	$25

Cancellation and Refund Policies

Cancellation occurs when the student cancels his/her contract prior to or on the fifth day of enrollment. The student can cancel enrollment with penalty up to 50% and including the fifth day of instruction for each semester. The student must cancel in writing by submitting a cancellation form to the institution’s office. Two cancellation forms will be given to the student upon enrollment although the notice of cancellation does not need to take any form. Any Notice of Cancellation must contain the words, “I cancel my contract for school.” The Notice of Cancellation must be done in writing and the student does not have the right to cancel by telephone or by not coming to class. Notices that are mailed, must be postmarked by the fifth day of classes. A refund will be calculated and sent to the student within 10 days if the Notice of Cancellation is sent within 5 days.

Drop or Withdrawal

The student has a right to drop or withdraw from any course during any semester up to the 100% completion point of the semester and receive a pro-rata refund of tuition paid for that course but not received. A student who does not attend classes for 21 consecutive scheduled class days will be deemed to have withdrawn from class. The student’s last date of attendance will be used to calculate refunds in this event. Refunds will be paid within 30 days of the date that it has been determined that the student has dropped from the course program. A refund will be calculated and the student will be notified by a Notice of Refunds Due within 30 days of dropping or withdrawing.

Refund Example

This refund example is based upon a student dropping a course for a semester with a total tuition charge of $2400 for the course and the course offered for 24 weeks and the student dropping within the fifth day from the starting day.

$2400 tuition

Paid for the course x 12 weeks / 24 weeks in the semester = $1200 refund due for the course.

Student paid $600 for the course on the total due of $2400 for the course. To determine the refund, subtract the refund due of $1200 from $600 paid for the course and this equals the amount of refund due for course ($600 - $1200 = <$600>). If the amount is a negative number after subtracting the refund due from the total paid, then this is the amount the student still owes for the course program. If the amount is a positive number, this is the amount of refund that will be sent to the student.
