                     PAYMENTS & REFUNDS
PAYMENTS & REFUNDS

                     Continuing Education & Professional Development Courses
                     Online registration requires immediate payment via credit card. All other fees are payable by check, money order, or cash to the Bursar’s
                     Office. Once your registration form has been processed, you will receive payment instructions via email.

                     Refund Guidelines for Students
                     A. Once registered, the student must pay tuition. Registration is not guaranteed until tuition has been paid, particularly for high-demand
                        classes.
                     B. A 100 percent refund will be granted if the student drops the class at least five business days before the start date. The term “refund”
                        includes voiding invoices for unpaid balances. Drop requests must be submitted in writing to the appropriate department. Emailed
                        requests are acceptable at noncredit@dcc.edu.
                     C. Any type of refund may require up to approximately six weeks for processing. The College is a state agency, and therefore, all refunds
                        must be substantiated in writing and are subject to review by the State of Louisiana Office of the Legislative Auditor.
                     D. Nonattendance does not constitute dropping a class. If the student does not submit a drop request, he or she will be billed for the class
                        even if he or she has not attended.
                     E. No drop requests and associated refunds will be granted after the five-day drop period has passed.
                        • Exceptions might be granted on a case-by-case basis in the event of certain documentable emergencies. A refund request must
                             be submitted in writing within 30 days of the course end date to the appropriate department along with documentation of the
                             emergency.
                        • Transfer to another course is determined on a case-by-case basis and must be done five business days before the class begins.
                        • A Refund Request Committee, comprised of appointed representatives of Workforce Development (usually department heads
                             or their designees), will evaluate the requests on a monthly basis. Decisions of this committee shall be considered final and not
                             eligible for appeal.
                     F. A 100 percent refund is automatically processed if a class is cancelled by Delgado Community College.
                        • Students will be notified when a class is cancelled by the College before the scheduled starting date. All efforts will be made to
                             provide notice of cancellation at least three business days before the start date of the course.
                        • A written request from the student is not required to process a refund in this instance.

                     Payment Guidelines for Students
                     A. Failure to pay any balance in full by the end date of a class may result in the account being placed with a collection agency. Students
                        are responsible for all collection and/or legal fees associated with accounts placed with collection. Holds that restrict registration,
                        release of grades, results, and/or certificates of completion may be placed on accounts with a balance remaining after the class had
                        ended.
                     B. Students are assessed a fee for all returned checks and/or credit card chargebacks due to insufficient funds, unauthorized use,
                        cancelled card, or fraud. The fee is $25 for five percent of the amount of the returned check/credit card chargeback, whichever is
                        greater. Only in the case of a bank or card issuer error will the returned check/credit card chargeback penalties be removed. After the
                        College has exhausted its attempts to notify the student, failure to pay the returned check or credit card chargeback and additional
                        charges may subject the student to an administrative withdrawal from classes and his or her account may be submitted to a collection
                        agency.

                     Sally Mae is offering the Smart Option Student Loan to students seeking financial aid for certification / license programs. Interest rates will

NEW! The Basics of Scriptwriting
From short films to comic books to plays, scriptwriting takes
creative writing and boils it down to the essence: full characters,
compelling plot, and sharp dialogue. But the novice scriptwriter
must learn some basic skills like formatting, scope of vision, and
viability of production. Students will learn different approaches to
storytelling, how to create characters and character arcs, the ins
and outs of dialogue, and get practical advice on taking their scripts
to production. Open to novice screenwriters, comic book writers,
playwrights, or fiction/non-fiction writers looking to expand their
ideas.
