Withdrawals and Refunds Policy

Courses are based on 16 hours per week. Missing weekly meaningful contact with the instructor two weeks in a row will result in termination from the program. Students are responsible for informing the College in writing that they are withdrawing from a course or the program. A student may notify the College of intent to withdraw via email by contacting financing@actech.education.

 

A student who withdraws prior to the first day of class is entitled to a full refund of tuition and fees, minus the non-refundable 15% administration fee. After the start of class, refunds will be calculated on a class-by-class basis using the time-based refund policy below. American University of Technology will refund 100% of the tuition for any classes that never started. The following cancellation and refund policies shall apply:

 

  • Students have five (5) calendar days after signing the enrollment agreement to cancel and/or withdraw to receive a full refund of all payments paid to the institution without the deduction of 15% administration fee.
