Refund Policy 

MTSA will permit any student to cancel their enrollment agreement in a non-degree course within five MTSA business days of the enrollment day. Should a cancellation occur, MTSA will refund 100% of the tuition payment that was made by the student, minus the non-refundable portion (30%) submitted to hold the student's position in the class. Students withdrawing for medical reasons are assessed and adjusted no differently than other withdrawals. 

Students who withdraw after this deadline will not receive a refund.

Determination of the Withdrawal Date 

The student’s withdrawal date is the date the student submits the signed withdrawal form to the Registrar's Office. 

Administrative Withdrawal

Students may be administratively withdrawn from a course for non-attendance/participation. Any student who does not attend/participate in the course within 5 MTSA business days will be administratively withdrawn from the course.

Students will not receive a refund if Administratively Withdrawn.
