Registration Policies

Adding Classes You may add classes to an existing registration over the phone. Please reference your registration number when doing so.
Missed Classes There are no discounts provided for missed classes.
Waiting Lists If a class is full and no alternate course has been listed on the student’s registration the student will be placed on a waitlist. Pratt does not admit students from the waitlist who attend the first class. If a space becomes available in a course waitlisted students will be offered the space in sequential order and contacted by phone or e-mail. If paying with a credit card no fee is assessed until the student is placed in a class. Payments by check or cash are processed upon receipt. Payments by cash or check from students placed on a waitlist will be refunded approximately 10 days before the class starts if student is unable to get into a class.
Withdrawals & Refunds If Pratt cancels a class a full refund will be issued unless the student can be placed in an alternate course. Students who withdraw from a class at least two weeks prior to its first meeting will receive a full refund less their original $20 processing fee. Beginning Winter 2008 there is a drop fee associated with withdrawing from a course. Please see the new section regarding the drop fee below. Students withdrawing less than two weeks from the start of a course are not eligible for a refund. Refunds will be issued within 14 business days from the date of withdrawal.
Processing Fees: There is a non-refundable $20 processing fee for all students at Pratt enrolling in workshops or classes. Pratt refunds this fee only when Pratt cancels a class or workshop or if a waitlisted student is unable to get into any of the classes for which they are waitlisted.
*Drop Fee* There is a $15 drop fee on each class dropped at any point during registration. The fee is subtracted from any refund due to the student. If the student does not qualify for a refund no drop fee will be assessed. The fee does not apply to students who add one class for each dropped class in a given quarter.
Class Cancellation All classes not meeting their minimum enrollment one week prior to their start date may be cancelled. Pratt calls all affected students to explore placement in alternate classes. For questions, please contact the Education Associate at (206) 328-2200 ext. 222 or via e-mail at aondrick@pratt.org.
