What is the cancellation policy if I am unable to attend?

Refunds or credits cannot be issued for classes missed as a result of illness, personal emergencies, or any other event beyond our control. Please choose carefully. If you cannot attend a course, you can receive a refund (less the $6 registration fee) by notifying us 2 days before the first class begins.

How do I cancel a registration?

You cannot cancel a registration online. To cancel a registration, you must contact our office:

*Please include your full name and address, registration details for the course you want to cancel (i.e. course code, title, and dates) and a day time phone number where we can contact you. Our office is open between 9am and 2pm.

When does MALT cancel a class?

Please do not wait until the last minute to register for a class. If a class has low enrollment, usually 4 students or less, we may need to cancel the class. We make that decision 2 days before the first class begins. If MALT cancels a class due to low enrollment we offer students a refund or a credit towards a future class plus the registration fee if the student only registered for 1 class during the term.
