Late and Returned Check Fees A 10% fee is added to payments received 15 days past due. There is a $35.00 returned check fee.
School Discount Schools will receive a 10% discount on tuition when sending three or more students during the same academic year.
Tuition Refund Policy If a student withdraws from the program prior to the first day of class all tuition paid, minus $100.00 of the deposit, will be refunded. If a student withdraws before the 11th day of courses, 75% of tuition paid will be refunded. If a student withdraws before the 22nd day of courses, 50% of tuition paid will be refunded. If a student withdraws before the 33rd day of courses, 25% of tuition paid will be refunded. After that date, no refunds will be made. Refunds are figured from the official withdrawal date, not from the time when the student stops attending class. The student is required to withdraw officially by writing a letter of intent to the Director of VCMS.
Additional Costs Students should plan to spend approximately $600 – $800 on books, supplies and materials. Self-directed internships have an additional visit fee of $225 per student.
