Continuing Education Non-Credit Course Drop and Refund Policy
Continuing Education is committed to the quality of our classes, services,
and instructors. If you are unsatisfied with your experience or unable
to attend a course for reasons beyond your control, please contact
us. We will do our best to provide a solution that meets your individual
needs. Please keep in mind that in many instances, classroom space,
instructor arrangements, and course materials are scheduled and purchased
based on expected class enrollments shortly before the class begins.
Therefore, we ask that you submit any drop requests four calendar days
prior to the first day of class. This will ensure that you receive
a full refund and allow us to adjust our class rolls appropriately.
For most Contuing Education classes, drop requests can be made online
or by phone (801-581-6461). See below for specific program information.
Should you need to drop after four calendar days prior to the beginning
of the class, please contact the appropriate program directly in order
that we may identify the best option to meet your individual circumstance.
