are responsible for all tuition and fees unless they
drop the class prior to the class start date, in which
case fees may be reduced or refunded in accordance
with the WTCS Refund/Reduction policy. If you do not
officially drop a class, you will be billed for it even if
you do not attend.
Cancellation Policy
We must meet minimal enrollment requirements to
run a class. If there are insufficient enrollments in a
class, it will be cancelled four days prior to the start
date. In case of a class cancellation, Continuing
Education will attempt to reach students using the
contact information on file with the school. Register
early to prevent class cancellations!

Refund/Reduction
Prior to class start date . . . . . . . . . 100% refund.
Prior to 11% of class completed . . 80% refund.
From 11% and prior to 20% . . . . . . 60% refund.
This is the last period in which a of class completed
student may drop a degree credit class without receiving

Dropping a degree credit class during this time will result
in a "W" (withdrawn) on a student's record. A student
may drop a class prior to it being 90% completed.*
* NOTE: Often more than 20% of the potential class hours have
expired prior to the end of the first class session.
Waitlists
If a class is full, please join the waitlist; if enough
students are waiting, Continuing Education may open
additional sections. When a class is full, the next
student who tries to enroll is offered the opportunity
to join a "wait list." The system will (up until 2 days
before the class) automatically attempt to enroll the
first person on the waitlist when a space opens up,
and if successful (e.g. it doesn't conflict with another
course) the person will be enrolled and will be sent
both an email to their student account and a letter to
their postal address on file to let them know they are
enrolled and how to drop if desired. Students may
only be on one waitlist per course catalog number.
Students should use caution in joining a waitlist for a
class in which they may not want to become enrolled
and should be sure to have their correct mailing
address and phone number in our system.
grades
600-level enrichment courses are not graded; other
noncredit courses are graded on a satisfactory/
unsatisfactory basis.
Course notes
In addition to convenient online management of
your schedule, your myMadisonCollege account

underage students
Students aged 16 and 17 can register for most

matter is age-appropriate and the course is not during
school hours. Students aged 14 and 15 will need to
