Refunds

  • A 100% refund is given upon withdrawal during the first two weeks of the semester. 
  • No refund or credit is given after withdrawal beyond the second week of the semester.

The refund/reversal for short-term classes is based on the length of the class and the number of days per week the class meets. 

  • A 100% refund is given upon withdrawal by the 10% point. 
  • No refund is given after the withdrawal beyond the 10% point.

Class Meets

 

100% Refund if Withdrawal by End of

4-week class 2nd day of class
6-week class 3rd day of class
8-week class 4th day of class
10-week class 1st wk of class

 

Note: Classes meeting fewer weeks or fewer days per week will have shorter withdrawal periods based on their 10 percent point.

A full refund will be processed for courses canceled by Hartnell College automatically after the last add/drop period.

Dropping or withdrawing from a course after the 10% point will result in the student owing the fees for the course. Dropping or withdrawing is not an automatic process. It is the student's responsibility to drop the classes they are not attending. If you do not drop a class, you will be charged for it, and you could receive an "F" grade that will remain on your permanent record.  Please follow this link to view the Attendance Policy.
