UNDERGRADUATE CREDIT

Matriculated college students, and adults may register for four semester hours of undergraduate credit from 91°µÍø when they choose to enroll in the four-week workshops in Fiction, Non-Fiction and Poetry. The course designations are EN380 Fiction Workshop, EN378 Nonfiction Workshop and EN379 Poetry Workshop. Students will be expected to comply with 91°µÍø’s academic policies and Non-Matriculated students will be required to submit a copy of their current transcript.

REFUND POLICY

Because faculty and staff salary commitments must be made in advance and the costs of operations are fixed, the College must follow a very limited refund policy. Details of this policy as it relates to tuition and program fees follow.  Appeals for refunds due to extenuating circumstances may be made in writing to the Program Director.

If 91°µÍø cancels a program all program fees will be refunded.

• Application fees will not be refunded.
• Tuition payments (less non-refundable deposit) will be refunded if requested, in writing, by Friday, June 6, 2025.
• Room: 100% of the room fee will be refunded if the student notifies the Program Director in writing thirty (30) days prior to the program start date. Fifty percent (50%) of the room fee will be refunded if withdrawal from the program occurs after this time and before the program begins. The room fee will not be refunded if the student withdraws on or after the first day of the program.
• Board: 100% of the board fee will be refunded prior to the program start date. Withdrawal from the College after the start of any program shall entitle the student to a pro-rated refund of the unused portion of the board fee from the date of withdrawal, on a weekly basis.
