Tuition Refund Policy
Refunds are automatically processed according to the following Refund Schedule for those who withdraw or are dismissed. Withdrawals may be communicated by students in any manner; however, Valar Institute strongly recommends submitting requests in writing to billing@quantic.edu to ensure timely processing. Tuition refunds are processed within 30 days of the withdrawal or dismissal.
A student has five (5) calendar days after signing the initial enrollment agreement to cancel enrollment and receive a full refund of all monies paid to the institution.
Students withdrawing due to active duty military service should contact Valar for additional information regarding their tuition and account options.
Refund amounts are based on the total amount of tuition stated in the student’s enrollment agreement (“Total Tuition”), regardless of how much has been paid by the student at the time of withdrawal or dismissal.
Students who are dismissed or withdraw from Valar will receive a refund within 30 days of removal from the program according to the following schedule:
| Progress Benchmark | Percentage of Total Tuition Refunded to the Student | Percentage of Total Tuition Retained by Valar |
| Prior to beginning any of the lessons, concentrations, specializations, or capstone projects listed in the catalog | 100% | 0% |
| Before completing 10% of the program | 90% | 10% |
