HTAS Policies & FAQ's
The Haverford Township Adult School Policies
A. COURSE CANCELLATIONS:
The School reserves the right to cancel classes in its sole discretion. The School will seek to notify enrolled students of cancellations in a timely manner by telephone or email. In the event of a class cancellation, the School will refund tuition payments.
B. REFUNDS AND WEB CREDITS:
Refunds will be given by check or returned to credit card only in the event of a canceled class. If you are not satisfied with your course after the first class has met or if you withdraw because of illness, personal emergencies, moving or any other event beyond our control, you will be issued a web credit for a maximum of 50% of the tuition fee. To qualify, you must notify the HTAS office in writing. If you notify the office of withdrawal at least five days prior to the first class, you may qualify for a full refund of your tuition.
Web credits may be used to register for HTAS classes within four (4) years of the issue date. Web credits issued during the pandemic (2020-2022) will expire in June 2026. Web credits may be used by another member of the same household but are not otherwise transferable. If a web credit remains unused at its expiration date, it will be considered as a donation to the HTAS and will no longer be available to be used as a tuition payment. Of course, you may opt to designate a web credit as a tax-deductible donation at any time by advising HTAS in writing of your intention to consider the credit as a donation.
C. TRANSFERS:
Students may transfer from one class to another available class upon payment of a five dollar ($5.00) Transfer Fee.
D. SINGLE SESSION ADMISSION:
On the first night of classes, students may purchase a "Try a Class" ticket for any unfilled class of four sessions or more upon payment of a ten dollar ($10.00) fee which will be credited toward the class tuition. "Try a Class" cannot be purchased before the first night of class.
