5.3.WT, without penalty or obligation, may refund the full amount charged of all Application Fee(s), not to exceed $200.00, if the request is made in writing (as noted in 5.5) and as long as no other monies have been submitted to schedule any course(s) Start Date. If Student is not satisfied after attending their first day of a 5-Day Beginning Automotive training course, at WT’s sole discretion, may ONLY be entitled to a full refund of tuition minus traveling expenses and as long as they inform WT in writing by 5:00 p.m. PST on the Start Date (as noted in 5.8) and must forfeit and return all training material, including tools, manuals, etc., in their original condition and contingent upon they are not in violation of section 7.2 or any other Terms and Conditions of this Student Agreement. After this time noted herein, or anytime thereafter, student therefore will not be entitled to any refund, or any other compensation for any additional losses student may incur, for any reason, at any time. If you register for any Mobile Training Courses, whereas we come to you and provide training, then there are no refund offers that apply and all monies paid (or to be paid) are non-refundable and you will not be entitled to a refund, or any other compensation for any additional losses you may incur, for any reason, at any time.

However, Student may cancel for any reason, with written notice, up to 15 calendar days prior to the original registered Start Date and may only be entitled to a credit of any monies paid, and/or monies scheduled to be paid, towards an alternate Start Date; which is solely agreed upon at WT’s discretion and availability. If the written cancelation is submitted after the 15 calendar days prior to the original registered Start Date, then all monies paid, and/or monies scheduled to be paid, will be considered non-credited for any reason and subject to being non-refundable. All written cancellations must be received within 24 hours after any verbal, or any other method of non-written notice, from the Student in order for WT to consider any cancellation options as noted above. NOTE: Text messaging is not considered a form of written notice; emails and/or hand written or typed letters are the only methods considered as a form of written cancelation. If no written cancellation request is received during this allotted time, then all monies paid, and/or any monies scheduled to be paid, will be considered non-refundable. If Student is put on notice to submit a written cancellation request and if no written notice is received from Student to officially cancel any registered Start Date after 24 hours of said notice, then the registered Start Date will be subject to the Terms and Conditions of this Student Agreement and all monies paid, and/or monies scheduled to be paid, will be non-refundable. NOTE: All attempts will be made in order to schedule an alternate student in the unlikely event Student requests to cancel the original and/or any alternate registered Start Date in order for WT to consider any credit or refund options. In addition, only ONE alternate Start Date rescheduling request from Student may be considered; which is still solely agreed upon at WT’s discretion and availability. In the event Student decides to challenge or dispute any monies paid, and/or monies scheduled to be paid, either through the payment processing company and/or arbitration, then Student understands they will forfeit any credit/refund options; therefore, any monies paid, and/or monies scheduled to be paid, will become non-refundable.

If you refuse the re-training, or do not schedule for it in the time frame noted above, or are deemed not to be allowed the re-training, at the sole discretion of WT, you therefore will not be entitled to a refund, or any other compensation for any additional losses you may incur, for any reason.
