Course Changes and Cancellations
Moore College of Art & Design reserves the right to withdraw courses, alter its curriculum, change instructors or modify tuition and fees for its programs. Courses that do not meet minimum enrollment will be cancelled. All attempts will be made to notify registered students of cancellations by telephone one week before the start of the course. All applicable course and registration fees will be refunded within 4 to 6 weeks.
Credit Courses
Students in credit courses must adhere to academic regulations concerning class attendance and completion of in-class and assigned work. Grades will be mailed to each student 3-4 weeks after the completion of the course.
Auditing a Course
All courses may be taken on a non-credit basis. Students may audit a course at a 30% discount off of tuition. Students who audit courses do not receive a grade, credit or transcripts for the course.
A letter of course completion is available for students who audit a course in Continuing Education. The letter indicates that the student attended and completed the course, but does not constitute evaluation of the student’s performance. A student must request a letter of course completion during the semester that the student attends the course.
