Course Cancellation Policy
Battle Ground Community Education is student supported by course fees; therefore we must establish a minimum enrollment and cancel courses that do not reach that minimum. That decision is always determined at least 48 hours before class is scheduled to start.
In the event your class is cancelled, our department will make every effort to contact you. Be sure that your contact information with daytime phone numbers is complete and up to date on your registration/student profile.
If your course is cancelled by our department you may transfer to another course or request a full refund of course fees. Course fee refunds due to class cancellation take approximately three to four weeks to process and are issued by credit card or check based on the same manner in which the course fee was paid.
Refund Policy
Because instructor salaries are paid by the fees collected and because students are denied enrollment when the class maximum is met, we must limit our refund policy. A refund will only be issued if received in writing 7 working days prior to the beginning of class, camp or recreation program. All customer initiated refunds are subject to a $10 administrative fee.
Refunds based on special circumstances must be requested in writing and will be considered but not guaranteed. All customer initiated refunds are subject to a $10 administrative fee.
Summer Academy Refund Policy: A refund will only be issued if received in writing 14 days prior to the beginning of Summer Academy. All customer initiated refunds are subject to a $10 administrative fee. NO refunds or Credit vouchers will be considered under 13 days prior to the start of Summer Academy.
