Refund Information

Refunds
(Please see Tuition Refund Policy for full text of policy.)

CBC will refund tuition and refundable fees if official withdrawal from College or course(s) occurs within the specified time frame listed below. Certain fees are non-refundable or refundable only if withdrawal occurs prior to the first day of instruction.

Definitions

• The "first day of instruction" is defined as the first day of scheduled classes for the quarter.
• "Instruction days" are Monday through Friday.
• "Calendar days" are all days including weekend days and holidays. 

Refund Exceptions:

1. Non-Refundable
   The application fee is non-refundable. The auditorium/HUB/safety fee, per-credit comprehensive fee, and lab fees are not refundable unless withdrawal occurs prior to the first day of instruction.
2. Small Balance Refund Amount
   No refund checks will be processed for credit balances that are less than $5. These refunds may be applied to future CBC charges or redeemed in cash from Hawk Central (cash balances permitting).
3. Special Courses
   The refund policy may not apply to contract classes, continuing education classes, workshops, or other courses on special schedules.
4. Title IV Federal Financial Assistance
   Students receiving Title IV federal financial assistance should refer to Financial Aid office for adding, dropping, and withdrawal policies. Federal regulations supercede CBC's refund policy.

Warning: withdrawal may result in the student owing amounts to the Title IV program AND to CBC. Consult the Financial Aid office AND Hawk Central before withdrawing.
