We do not offer credits for weather related school closures; however, we will make every attempt to schedule a makeup class for any missed days, including those caused by weather.
If the closure is the fault of the school and we are unable to schedule a makeup day, we will offer an option of a credit or refund for missed classes.

Up to Two Classes Missed – Late enrollment for all class levels is automatically approved for students who have missed two classes. No official approvals are necessary.
Three or More Classes Missed – For students who would like to enroll after three or more classes have been missed, they will need to be approved by the administration, which may include placement tests and a discussion with the instructor.
Late Enrollment Prorate Policy
If a student enrolls later in the term, our prorate policy is as follows:
Up to Two Classes Missed – If you have missed two classes, you will not receive a prorated enrollment cost and will pay the full tuition cost.
Three or More Classes Missed – If you have been approved to enroll after three or more missed classes, we will prorate the remaining classes in the term and the $25 registration fee will be added to the total prorated cost.
