CLASS CANCELLATIONS:
Insufficient Class Sign-ups:
Entire classes may be postponed or cancelled when enrollment minimums are not met. CVAC will notify students of a cancellation prior to the start of each class, this could be done at the last minute. Students will be notified by e-mail or phone of any cancellations. If a class is cancelled by CVAC, students may opt to receive a credit for future CVAC classes, or the full tuition will be refunded by check and mailed within thirty days.
Class Cancelations & Emergency Closings:
If an instructor must cancel an individual class due an outside conflict, no refunds nor class credits will be issued. Classes will not be held on most national holidays or during extreme inclement weather. CVAC tries to follow the decisions of the Cuyahoga Falls School System regarding weather-related closings. Students can check CVAC’s website or social media posts for updates on closures. Classes cancelled due to snow or other emergencies will not be refunded.
MISSED CLASSES:
No refunds, credits or make-ups will be given for classes missed by the student (i.e. a student “no show”). The class a student signs-up for, day and time, is the class the student is permitted to attend. No student will be permitted to ‘float’ in between classes.
