The school must receive written notification of a students cancelation a minimum of five (5) days prior to the start of the course, for the student to receive a refund. All written notifications must be emailed to mailto:education@paarealtors.com. All refunds are subject to a 25 percent cancelation fee and can take up to 10-14 business days to process. If a student cancels their registration less than five (5) days prior to the start of the course, their registration fee is non-refundable.

Students must notify the school prior to the start of their registered course to be eligible for a transfer. Registration fees can be transferred to another course date, pending course availability, within 60 days of the initial course date. If a transfer email is not received within 60 days of the initial course date, the option to transfer will expire. If classes have ended for the year, a refund will be issued.
No Shows
In the event of a no-show, the student forfeits their registration fee. The course becomes non-refundable. The student loses the ability to reschedule or transfer.
