  2. Refund calculations will be based on the scheduled course time of classes through the last documented day of an academically related activity. Leaves of absence, suspensions and school holidays will not be counted as part of the scheduled class.
  3. The effective date of termination for refund purposes will be the earliest of the following:
    • The date of termination, if the student is terminated by the school;
    • The date of receipt of written notice from the student; or
    • The first of the following dates when the student’s participation is an academically related activity cannot be documented: at the end of the first week of each academic term, and at the end the first month of each academic term, at the midpoint of each academic term and at the end of each academic term.
