What is the refund policy for non-credit courses?
If a noncredit course is canceled by The University of Akron, a full refund will be issued. Withdrawal requests received up to three business days prior to the first class meeting will result in a full refund, less a $15 processing charge, or an opportunity to transfer to another course. Thereafter, withdrawal requests received up to the beginning of the second class meeting will receive a 50 percent refund. No refunds are issued after the start of the second day of classes. Substitutions also may be accepted in lieu of a refund. Refunds for noncredit courses are determined by the date the withdrawal request is received. The refund period cannot be extended if the student fails to attend the first class. Charge cards and refund checks will be processed promptly. Parking permits must be returned to the Workforce Development and Continuing Education office to receive a refund. For more information, call 330-972-7577.
