Terms of Enrollment
Rules & Regulations
Students are expected to adhere to a standard of behavior that is appropriate and conducive to the furtherance of the academic standards and professional goals that National Paralegal College (NPC) has established for its programs.
NPC administration may, at its discretion, revoke a student's login name and password and/or deny a student a degree or certificate due to behavior it considers inappropriate.
Grading will be on a standard scale of A, B, C, D, F, including + and - grades.
Withdrawal Policy
A student may cancel an enrollment agreement if the student submits a written notice of cancellation within 3 days, excluding Saturday, Sunday, and state and federal holidays, of signing the agreement. The school shall provide a refund of 100% of all student fees and tuition paid for the student.
After the above-mentioned period has elapsed, if a student withdraws from the program by notifying NPC by e-mail or in writing, the student will only be responsible for payment of tuition for courses that he/she has already taken, at the rate of $687 per course, in addition to the non-refundable enrollment fee of $95 and LexisNexis account fee of $100. If a student withdraws in the middle of a course, the student will be responsible for payment of $687 times the number of complete weeks the student had been enrolled in the course divided by the number of weeks of the duration of the course, as follows:
