NON-REFUNDABLE ITEMS – Testing/Proctoring Fees, Application and Registration Fees, Lab Supplies, Software/Technology, and Books. Nonrefundable fees regarding admission and registration of students shall not exceed $150.
If Woodmont College does not offer a class that students have registered and paid for, Woodmont will refund the cost of the course to students. If students choose to withdraw from a course, their tuition refund depends on the date they withdrew from the course. Withdrawal dates and refunds are printed below:
Cancellation may be requested by phone, in person, via email, or via postal services.
All monies will be refunded if the student cancels within five (5) business days after signing the Enrollment Agreement and making initial payment, with the exception of the application fee.
If the school does not accept the applicant, all monies will be refunded with the exception of the application fees.
Cancellation after the fifth business day, but before the first class, will result in a refund of all monies paid with the exception of the application and registration fees.
Cancellation after attendance has begun, through 40% completion of the program, will result in a Pro Rata refund computed on the number of hours completed to the total program hours. Cancellation after completing more than 40% of the program will result in no refund.
Termination date: the termination date for refund computation purposes is the last date of actual attendance by the student unless earlier written notice is received. Actual attendance is measured by date of last communication between student and school representative or instructor.
Students who cancel their enrollment before having completed full payment for a course, will have their tuition recalculated and their pro-rata refund deducted from the full tuition price. Student will complete payment of tuition owed after the recalculation, as per the payment schedule.
Refunds will be made within 30 days of termination or receipt of Cancellation Notice.
Students who cancel their enrollment after paying in full, but are not eligible for a refund, are entitled to retain access to the online courses they paid for as well as receive any applicable course materials.
A student can be dismissed, at the discretion of the Director, for insufficient progress, nonpayment of costs, or failure to comply with rules. Students who are dismissed will be refunded as per the college refund schedule.
If the school terminates a program for any reason, those who have paid will receive a 100% refund on monies paid to the school.
For a student who is on a leave of absence, the termination date is the date the student was scheduled to return from the leave of absence and failed to do so.

Hi ,
The State of Florida requires that we disclose the full cost of the four-year program.
You will be billed only for the number of courses and credit hours you select. Once you have registered for specific courses, a detailed bill will be sent.
Please note that the test/proctoring fee on page 1 is $25 per test. For many courses, there is one test which is proctored online per semester. If you are taking two courses in one term, the testing fees would be $50 (2 x $25). The fee will be determined by the number of courses you take which include a proctored exam, and is paid directly to the proctoring service.
Regarding textbook fees, we have estimated costs based on the highest list price for the textbooks used in our courses. However you may choose to rent books from Amazon or buy them second-hand, reducing the textbook costs you incur, so the amount should be considered only an estimate.
In addition to your tuition payments, continuing students may incur a fee for late registration and/or you may choose to pay a live class fee of $150 per course in order to access live classes.
If you have any additional questions, please call our office at 786-605-0614.
Sincerely,
Avital Lopiansky
Admissions Office
Woodmont College
