Refund Policy

Although we make every effort to ensure that your experience with Global Village School is successful, we realize that sometimes you will need to make a return or withdraw from a course or from the school. We will refund enrollment, curriculum, and tuition fees in the following ways:

 

Canceling Enrollment

To cancel your child’s enrollment in Global Village School or in a Global Village course, you must send a letter, fax, or email to the Global Village office informing us of your child's withdrawal. Withdrawal is officially recognized only upon receipt of written notification and must be confirmed by a Global Village office staff member. The date the written notification is received will serve as the official date of termination. This applies to withdrawal from the school or from a course. It takes 30 days after the school receives notification of a withdrawal before the process is completed.

During the first 30 days, 50% of the high school enrollment fee is nonrefundable. From 31-60 days, 75% of the enrollment fee is nonrefundable. After 60 days no enrollment refund is available.

 

Tuition

A good deal of work goes into welcoming new students and their families to Global Village School. For K-8 students, $250 of the tuition cost is a registration fee that covers the administrative costs of processing new enrollments. This registration fee is nonrefundable. For all students tuition usually covers a five or ten month period. If tuition has been paid in full, then any un-used tuition may be refundable for up to 60 days from the date of enrollment in the courses. Used tuition is defined based on the time that has elapsed since enrollment - it is not based on how much work the student has done or how much contact they have had with their teacher.

For K-8 students, we subtract the $250 registration fee and then return a percentage of the remaining tuition. During the first 30 days of enrollment, 15% of the tuition is non-refundable. From 31 - 60 days, 20% of the tuition is nonrefundable. After 60 days no tuition refund is available. The date payment is received will serve as the official date of enrollment. If you are on a payment plan Global Village School will calculate your refund based upon the amount of tuition used vs. the total amount of your payments. Any administrative fees associated with monthly payments made before the withdrawal date are nonrefundable.
