Cancellation and Refund Policy

The student is entitled to a refund of all monies paid if the student withdraws their admissions acceptance within seven (7) calendar days of signing the Enrollment Agreement. A student may withdraw from the program prior to taking any classes or within seven (7) days of enrollment. The student will be refunded all tuition paid within thirty (30) days after proper withdrawal. Withdrawal must be made in person, via electronic mail, or via certified mail to the Office of the Registrar. The Office of the Registrar will notify the Associate Dean for Student Services.

The Cancellation and Refund policy will be applied if a student is terminated. Students may be terminated from the program by OCOM for just cause, as described in the Student Catalog. Refunds, in this case, will be the same as for student withdrawals.

Any textbooks, equipment, and supplies purchased by the student are the sole property of the student and are not subject to refund by OCOM.

Drop/Add Period 

Should a student enrollment be terminated or canceled for any reason, all refunds will be made according to the following refund schedule:

  • Cancellation can be made in person, by electronic mail, or by Certified Mail.

  • All acceptance fees will be refunded if the school does not accept the applicant or if the student cancels within seven (7) calendar days after signing the enrollment agreement and making the initial payment.

  • Cancellation after seven (7) calendar days, but before the first class, results in a refund of all monies paid.

  • If the student withdraws before the end of the Drop/Add period (1st week of each semester), the student will be refunded all tuition and fees. Refunds of tuition will not be issued if a student withdraws after the Drop/Add period of Week 1 of each semester.

  • Termination Date: In calculating the refund due to a student, the last date of actual attendance by the student is used in the calculation unless an earlier written notice is received.

  • Refunds will be issued within 30 days of termination of students’ enrollment or receipt of a Cancellation Notice from the student.
