Tuition Refund Policy

Curriculum

  • If a curriculum class is cancelled, all of the tuition and fees shall be refunded.
  • A one hundred percent (100%) refund shall be granted upon request by student if the class is dropped before the start date of the semester.  
  • A seventy-five percent (75%) tuition refund shall be granted upon request by the student if the class is officially dropped prior to or on the 10% point of the term. Some classes have irregular start dates; therefore to ensure you are eligible for a refund, please contact the Office of the Director of Records and Registration.
  • Refunds to financial aid programs will be made in compliance with federal and state regulations.
Tuition Refund dates are published per semester in WPCC's Semester Guide.  Tuition refund requests must be made through the Office of the Director of Records and Registration and will not be considered after the 10% point.

  • The student will receive a full refund if the student officially drops from the class at least one business day prior to the first day of class.
  • The student will receive a seventy-five percent (75%) refund of the registration fee if the student officially drops from the class prior to or at the 10% point of the class, if applicable.  To officially drop from a class, the student must complete a "Request for Refund" form, which is located in the Office of the Director of Records and Registration.
