Refunds

If CCV cancels a course, you will receive a full refund of tuition and fees. Prior to the third class meeting, you can drop one course and add another of equal value without financial penalty; however, you may not add any class after the first meeting without written permission of the regional director or a designee.

If you choose to drop a course, the registration fee is not refundable. You may be eligible for a refund of tuition and course fees when officially dropping a course using any of these three methods:

1. Log onto the VSC portal , click on Student Menu in the VSC Web Services module, and choose Drop Sections .

2. Submit a completed drop form.

2. Notify the College by calling the toll-free number 1-888-689-8895 and leaving the requested information in a recorded message.

In either case, the effective date of the drop is the first date of notification using published procedures. Please note that dropping a course can affect your academic transcript.
