REFUND POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
It is the student's responsibility to apply for a refund. A student is eligible for a refund after classes have been officially dropped. Classes must be dropped by the appropriate dead-
line for the session in order to be eligible for a refund. Stated deadlines are not adjusted due to late enrollment. See the “Calendar of Important Dates” for specific deadlines.
A student is eligible for a refund if: a) classes are dropped by the required deadline; b) the program change is the result of action taken by the college to cancel or reschedule a
class; c) the student is dropped for failure to meet a prerequisite(s) or corequisite(s); and/or, d) the student is active or reserve U.S. Military personnel who withdraws due to mili-
tary orders. Eligible students may file a petition with the district requesting refund of their enrollment fee(s). A refund will not be processed if academic credit has been awarded for
the class.
A check is the only form of payment that Cerritos College uses to issue refunds. If a payment is made by credit card for any registration transaction, and you later drop any or all of
your classes within the required refund period, we will NOT
credit your credit card account. All refund checks are made payable to the student. Refunds are made pursuant to Title
5, Section 58501 or 58501.1.
Enrollment Fee, Non-Resident Tuition, and Capital Outlay Fee will be credited if the official drop has occurred within the appropriate deadline* for session or semester. This is
in accordance with the Refund of Enrollment Fee regulation, Title 5, 58508.

by the ten percent point of the length of the short-term course (15 weeks, 9 weeks,6 weeks,etc.) Example: 15 weeks class X 5 working days 75 X 10% 7.5. The result is
rounded to allow 8 days to drop a class and be eligible for a refund.

issued and the last day of the semester one year later. Example: Beginning of the Spring semester to the end of the Spring semester of the following year. Credit totals will be
