The school's refund/return policy is a public document made in accordance with the Institute's Terms of Use. The refund/return policy provides additional disclosure in regard to legal guarantees and other statutory return rights that may not be included in the Terms of Use.
TEXTBOOK COURSE: I accept the terms and conditions of the ENROLLMENT APPLICATION & CONTRACT, and have also read the TUITION SETTLEMENT POLICY (listed below), and agree to be fully bound by the terms listed in each of the aforementioned documents. TUITION SETTLEMENT POLICY: 1. A student shall be given a full refund if cancellation is requested within 5 days of receipt of Plan One, by notifying the school in writing. All returned materials require a Return Receipt (a signature of ``acceptance`` from an Asheford representative), date of mailing, contents enclosed, and signature of sender - failure to provide this may result in loss of refund. Course materials returned showing excessive wear, tearing or marking, will not be accepted, and no refund will be issued. Ensuring that returned Course materials reach the Institute, is the responsibility of the student. 2. If cancellation is made after the 5-day risk-free examination period, the school is entitled to retain all tuition payments made. Students are entitled to receive a pro-rata share (formula calculated by the Institute) of Course materials owed to them, based on the amount of tuition paid to the Institute. No monetary refunds will be given whatsoever after the 5-day risk free examination period. 3. If a cancellation request occurs when students have received more Course materials & services than they have paid for, they will be required to pay the ``balance`` owing on their account for the materials & services that they have already received (this balance is subject to a pro-rata formula calculated by the Institute, and is based on the number of Course lessons & services already received by the student). 4. Students who withdraw after the 5-day risk-free examination period, will be subject to a $75.00 early Withdrawal/Reactivation Fee, in addition to any pro-rated tuition fees still owed to the Institute by the student. 6.Textbooks are subject to shipping fees.
