On rare occasions, checks may be accepted by corporate sponsors. There will be a $50 fee for any checks returned for insufficient funds.

4. TUITION REFUND POLICY

Every student must read and agree to our tuition refund policy as stated below:

• Every student that has paid the tuition in full will be guaranteed a seat in class
• Included in the tuition is a $100 non-refundable registration fee for Salesperson Pre-licensing, $300 for Broker Pre-licensing and $10- $20 for Continuing Education (CE) courses.
• A student may request a refund in writing prior to the start date of the class for the refundable portion of the tuition. A written notice will be accepted up to 48 hours until the start date of the chosen course. Once the class has started, no refunds will be issued. However, if the school cancels a course, a full refund will be issued.
• Registration may be limited. Registrations are accepted on a first paid, first confirmed basis. Upon receipt of your registration, you will receive an email confirming your enrollment in the course. Confirmation emails are sent out within 24 hours of receipt registration (not including weekends). Until you have received this email, you are not enrolled in the course.
• Any student who determines that they may not be eligible for the licensure due to their anticipated response to any of the Real Estate Commission’s “eight qualifying questions”, may withdraw their application and receive a refund provided that they notify their instructor and or school director before the beginning of their next class session. A copy of the Commission’s qualifying questions will be provided on the first day of the class.

6. CONTINUING EDUCATION COURSES
Tuition is generally due in full one week prior to the scheduled start date. However, on certain “special offers”, students may be required to register two (2) weeks prior to the scheduled start date to allow the school additional time to make arrangements to accommodate the increased student volume.

Tuition is transferrable to another course/start date within 1 year of your original start date for a $20 transfer fee. On course tuitions that are less than $50, the transfer fee is $10. If you have signed up for multiple courses at one time, the $20 transfer fee is applied once, not to each course individually. Tuition is NOT transferable to another person or pro-ratable.

An administrative fee of $10 will be charged for the duplicate.

Students may not miss more than 20% (15 hours) of class time. If more than 20% of class time is missed, the student must repeat the course. All classes begin on time.
