Enrollment in any Reading Through Times program is a full-semester commitment (8 weeks in summer, 19 weeks in fall or spring). This ensures consistency, progress, and intentional planning for each student's success.
However, if you find that you must withdraw early:
Notification Requirements: You must provide written notice at least 7 days in advance of your desired end date.
No Refunds: There are no refunds for missed sessions or early withdrawal, regardless of payment plan (weekly, monthly, or pay-in-full).
Future Charges: If you're on a weekly or monthly plan and decide to cancel mid-semester, you will not be charged going forward after the effective cancellation date, but you are still responsible for any unpaid balance or completed lessons.
If you are facing an emergency or hardship, please reach out. While all policies remain in place, I believe in compassionate communication and will always listen.
