Aloha Micro Academy Refund Policy
Aloha Micro Academy values transparency and fairness in all financial transactions. The following refund policy applies to all enrolled students, as outlined in the Aloha Micro Academy Student Handbook.
1.
Eligibility for Refunds
Tuition refunds are based on the date of school enrollment, not the date of payment. Because families may choose payment plans, the enrollment date determines refund eligibility and prorated calculations.
Refunds are available within 30 days of enrollment, provided all materials, technology, and property belonging to Aloha Micro Academy have been returned in satisfactory condition.
2.
Required Returns
All school materials, laptops, textbooks, workbooks, and any other Aloha-issued property must be returned before a refund is issued.
- If materials, including laptops and workbooks/textbooks, are not returned, tuition will not be refunded.
- Families are responsible for the cost of returning items to Aloha.
- If a prepaid shipping label is requested, the cost of shipping will be deducted from the refundable amount.
- Shipping costs paid to send materials to families are nonrefundable.
3.
License and Course Fee Deductions
Aloha Micro Academy pays licensing fees for each course a student is enrolled in. Refunds will be reduced by $250 per course to cover these nonrefundable license costs. This amount will be deducted from the total refundable tuition.
4.
Refund Processing Timeline
Refunds are processed within 4–6 weeks after all materials, supplies, and equipment have been received and inspected by Aloha Micro Academy.
Any deductions for damages, missing items, or prepaid shipping will be applied prior to final refund processing.
5.
Refunds for State-Funded Students
For students whose tuition is funded by a state scholarship or education program (e.g., UFA, ESA, or similar):
- Refunds are sent directly to the state program, not to the family.
- Refunds are not returned to the payment processors or handlers, as outlined in signed state contracts.
- Refunds are prorated based on the date of unenrollment and actual costs expended on the student’s enrollment by the school.
- The refund check to the funding program is issued within 4–6 weeks after Aloha receives all returned materials.
6.
Refunds for Privately Funded Students
For families who have paid tuition directly to Aloha Micro Academy with personal funds:
- Refunds are issued by check to the family’s address on file.
- Checks are processed and mailed within 4–6 weeks after the return of all materials and verification of account balance.
