The Joe Blasco Make-up Center maintains the following refund policy in accordance with Section 94312(d) of the Private Post Secondary and Vocational Education Reform Act of 1989, State of California.

The Policy provides for the refund of the unused portion of tuition fees and other charges in the event the student does not register for the period of attendance or withdraws therefrom at any time prior to completion of the course, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment. The institutional refund policy for students who have completed 60 percent or less of the course of instruction shall be a pro rata fund. Except for the $100.00 registration fee, the refund shall be the amount the student has paid for the instruction multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of hours of instruction which the student has not received but for which the student has paid, and the denominator of which is the total number of hours of instruction for which the student has paid.

The Joe Blasco Make-up Center shall, for all students, without penalty or obligation, refund 100 percent of the amount paid for institutional charges, less a $100.00 registration fee, if notice of cancellation is made prior to or on the first day of instruction. Any notification of withdrawal or request for refund must be made in writing. Notifications shall be sent to Brian D. Brown, Enrollment Director, Joe Blasco Make-up Center, 1670 Hillhurst Avenue, Los Angeles, California 90027.

After the first day of class, but prior to the issuance of materials, the student shall also be issued a refund for any and all fees paid for materials. No refund will be made for fees paid for materials after their issuance. Due to clearly recognized health and sanitary reasons, the cosmetics and tools cannot be returned after receipt by the student.

The Joe Blasco Make-up Center shall pay or credit refunds due in a timely manner not to exceed thirty (30) days following the date upon which the student’s withdrawal has been determined.

Hypothetical Refund Example:
Assume that a student, upon enrollment in a 300-hour course, pays $4,700.00 for tuition, $100.00 for registration, and $1,000.00 for supplies and withdraws after completing 100 hours without returning the supplies he/she has obtained. The pro rata refund would be $3,133.33.
