A limited refund policy is available. A student within 10 days of receiving their confirmation email of payment may request via fax, email, or phone (within this 10 day time frame) that they do not wish to continue with the Geriatric Certificate Program. If a refund is requested, this will be provided, less a 25% admin fee.
