Refund Policy

A student who at any time withdraws, is withdrawn (including expulsion) by the institution, or otherwise fails to attend class is entitled to a full refund of any fee, regardless of whether the fee is included in tuition, paid to the institution for tangible goods or services not delivered to or fully provided to the student.

 

In addition to the above policy of this rule, if a student fails to begin class on the program start date as written in the enrollment agreement or as amended by the institution, the refund shall equal the sum of all refundable fees paid and, if the student has institutional loans, forgiveness of the amounts owed by the student, less an administrative fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00).

 

If an enrolled student withdraws before the program commences, and the withdrawal date is within 3 weeks of class starting, NALTC will retain 50% of the $800 tool deposit.

 

If an enrolled student withdraws before the program commences, and the withdrawal date is within 1 week of class starting, NALTC will retain 100% of the $800 tool deposit, as well as 100% of the $500 housing deposit.

 

In addition to the above paragraphs of this rule, if after the program has commenced and before expiration of twenty percent (20%) or less of the period of enrollment for which the student was charged, a student withdraws, is withdrawn (including expulsion) by the institution, or otherwise fails to attend classes, the refund shall be a pro rata portion of refundable fees, less an administrative fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00). If applicable, the refund shall include forgiveness of institutional loans. For example, if a student’s last day of attendance equals ten percent (10%) of the period of enrollment for which the student was charged, the institution is entitled to retain only ten percent (10%) of the refundable fees charged for the period of enrollment as well as one hundred dollars ($100.00). However, in no instance will the institution be responsible for any refund in excess of the amount paid by or on behalf of the student for the period of enrollment for which the student was charged.

 

Except as provided for in the previous paragraph of this rule, if after expiration of twenty percent (20%) of the period of enrollment for which the student was charged, a student withdraws, is withdrawn (including expulsion) by the institution, or otherwise fails to attend classes, the student may be deemed obligated for one hundred percent (100%) of the refundable fees charged by the institution up to the last period of enrollment charged.

 

For a student who cannot complete one (1) or more classes because the institution discontinued such a class during a period of enrollment for which the student was charged, the institution shall refund the sum of all refundable fees paid and, if the student has institutional loans, forgive the amounts owed by the student.


* When computing refunds pursuant to the policies above, the last day of attendance shall be one of the following; the date on the expulsion notice if a student is expelled, the date the institution receives a written notice of withdrawal, the day the student fails to return from an approved Leave of Absence (LOA) or when no written notice of withdrawal is given the institution shall use the last day of attendance.
