Hackbright Withdrawal/Refund Policy
A student has the right to withdraw from Hackbright Academy at any time. If the student withdraws from the course, Hackbright will remit a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of the tuition less the non-refundable down payment paid. The amount of the refund is determined by deducting the non-refundable down payment from the total tuition charge, then dividing the remainder by the number of days in the course to calculate the daily charge. The refund is the amount in excess of what the student owes for total days of instruction completed. The date of withdrawal is the date of cancellation and is determined as the date the student notifies the school of the decision to cancel. The student will be charged for all hours attended.
