Refunds

Refunds are not provided to cohort students after the start of the first class of each term even if other classes in that term have not yet begun. Exceptions may be made for medical or other emergency situations. Contact the program director for further information.

Temporary Disruption of Attendance

If, for compelling reasons, a student finds it necessary to miss either a complete course or a significant number of classes, s(he) must consult with the director of Public Sector Programs, Dr. Henrik Minassians, as soon as the student is aware that classes or courses will be missed.

Every attempt will be made to see that the student is able to make up classes and continue with the cohort as soon as his/her circumstances have been resolved.

Payment can be made at The Tseng College Client Services Department in the CSUN Bookstore Complex. Payments may be made by cash, check, money order, cashier's check, Visa or MasterCard, or online via the CSUN Portal with Visa or MasterCard.
