BUYER'S RIGHT TO CANCEL

You have the right to cancel the enrollment agreement and obtain a refund.  Requests for cancellation and refunds may be made in any manner.  Students should return course materials to:

Allied Business Schools, Inc.
Attn:  Refund Department
22952 Alcalde Drive
Laguna Hills, CA  92653
(888) 925-4282
Refunds@alliedschools.com

If you wish to cancel within the first five (5) business days after enrollment, you have the right to receive a full refund of all charges. In this case, you are asked to refuse all UPS shipments from Allied Schools.

If you wish to cancel after the fifth business day but before any lessons are submitted, you are entitled to a full refund minus a non-refundable registration fee of 20% of the cost of the course (not to exceed $200).

Any refunds for cancellations will be paid within 30 days.

REFUND INFORMATION

If you have completed at least one lesson but no more than 60% of the lessons in the course and wish to withdraw, you are entitled to receive a “pro-rata” refund for the unused portion of the tuition until the course termination date (see enrollment agreement for exact termination dates). Refunds will be paid according to the following formula:

A non-refundable registration fee of 20% of the cost of the course (not to exceed $200) is deducted from the total amount paid for the course. The remaining amount is then divided by the total number of lessons in the course. This amount constitutes the “per lesson” charge for the course. Finally, the number of incomplete lessons in the course is multiplied by the “per lesson” charge. The remaining amount is the refund that is owed to you.

If you have completed more than 60% of the lessons in the course and wish to withdraw, you would not be entitled to a refund.

The refund period ends on the initial course termination date, even if an extension is granted in order for you to complete any unfinished lessons.

Any refunds for cancellations will be paid within 30 days.

You may not combine any two (2) price discounts when purchasing a course(s) or program(s); this includes, but is not limited to Alumni and Pay-in-Full discounts.
