Policies

At Laurel Springs, we are dedicated to providing students with a premier college preparatory education.  In order to ensure the smooth progression of coursework and the maintenance of transcripts, our policies and refunds clearly define the respective responsibilities of Laurel Springs School and our families. For additional information, please contact us at 800-377-5890.

Changing Course Curriculum

If  parents choose to change the type of course their child is taking (e.g. online to textbook), or the subject matter being studied (e.g. chemistry to physics) within the first 45 days of enrollment, the full cost of the course being dropped is credited towards the new course. However, parents are required to return any materials for the original course. After 45 days of enrollment, a prorated credit will be applied towards the cost of the new course, based on the time the student was enrolled in the original course.

Book Returns

In order to provide quality learning materials, Laurel Springs School does not buy back books or other learning materials.  An exception is made during the first 45 days after the enrollment start date for course changes as outlined under “Changing Course Curriculum” above.

Charity organizations and many educational facilities in your local area may be able to accept your kind donation of used materials. Also, Amazon and eBay are great options for resale of textbooks. Any materials returned to Laurel Springs School will be donated.

Extension Policy

If a student is unable to complete a course by the designated enrollment end date, an extension on the enrollment period may be purchased if the student has submitted a sufficient number of lessons to qualify.

Extensions are granted at the discretion of the Student Services Department.  Extensions may also be required for work submitted in bulk near the end of the student’s enrollment in order to accommodate grading time.

The Student Services Department will examine the student’s progress in all courses to determine the level of extension that is required for the student to complete the remaining coursework.  If you have questions, please contact the Student Services Department at 855-658-8682.

Dropping a Course

If a student drops a course between 1 and 45 days after the enrollment start date, 75% of the tuition cost is refundable and will be applied to any remaining balance due.  The course will be removed from the student’s transcript. If the student’s request to drop the course occurs after 45 days, but on or before the enrollment end date, no refund/credit is available and a course withdrawal will be entered on the student’s transcript. If an enrollment end date has passed, a student may not drop a course and a final course grade will be entered on the student’s transcript.

Withdrawal from School

If a student withdraws from school between 1 and 45 days after the enrollment start date, 75% of the tuition cost is refundable and will be applied to any remaining balance due. All fees are non-refundable, with the exception of tuition. If the student’s request to withdraw occurs after 45 days of enrollment, no refund is available and all unpaid balances are due immediately.

Disability Non-Discrimination Policy

Laurel Springs School is committed to providing a fine education to all of its students. As part of that commitment, Laurel Springs makes its programs, facilities, and services available on a non-discriminatory basis, including to students with disabilities.
