Q: What if I miss a class?
A: Many adult students miss a class because of work or other personal commitments. If you miss a class, do not give up! Attend as diligently as your schedule permits. No refunds or prorated fees are given for missed classes.
Q: What if a class is canceled?
A: If a class meeting date is canceled by the instructor, the instructor will arrange to make up the missed classroom time with the class. If a class meeting date is canceled due to external events such as weather, the class will meet at the same time and the same location one week later – or at the next regularly-scheduled session unless we advise you differently.
Q: What if a class has already started? May I still register for it?
A: If you have had some previous exposure to the subject you wish to learn, you may feel comfortable joining a class after it has started. There is no tuition remission for classes that you missed, and you will not be able to register on-line. Please call 703-658-1219 to enroll in a class that has already begun.
Q: What about BOOKS?
A: The cost of the text is included with each class. Your book will be delivered to your classroom. There is no need to visit a bookstore.
