CASH, CHECK OR CHARGE
Make all checks & money orders payable to LAPC. We accept DISCOVER, MASTERCARD
or VISA only.
Paying by Check
The Los Angeles Community College District requires either a California Driver's
License Number, California ID Number, or Social Security Number to be written or
printed on the check at time of registration. We are not able to accept checks that
do not have a name and address printed on them.
RETURNED CHECKS
A $10 RETURNED CHECK CHARGE is assessed for EACH CHECK returned to the L.A.P.C.
Business Office unpaid by the bank for any reason. A STOP PAYMENT ORDER on a check
DOES NOT constitute an official withdrawal nor does it relieve the student's
financial obligation for a class. PLEASE FOLLOW REFUND POLICY PROCEDURES TO AVOID
ADDITIONAL CHARGES.
FAX-IN REGISTRATION
Because of the large volume of registrations received by this office, we do not
confirm fax receipts by phone. However, please be sure to include your phone number
on the registration form in the space provided should the office need to contact
you for any other reason.
Please fax registrations ONLY once, as sub-sequent faxes cannot always be detected
and will result in duplicate processing and charges.
CONFIRMATIONS
A stamped, self-addressed business-size envelope is required for space confirmation,
payment receipt and room location when registering by mail. If you register for
a class by fax, mail or telephone and you do not receive a confirmation or the room
location the day before your class(es) begin, it is your responsibility to call
Pierce College Extension at (818) 719-6425 for that information. Non-receipt
of
confirmation does not warrant a refund.
SCHEDULE CHANGES
Times, dates, fees, locations, instructors, and methodology for classes are subject
to change and DO NOT warrant a refund.
CANCELLATIONS
A class may be CANCELLED by the Extension office if fewer than the required minimum
numbers of students enroll. Participants will be contacted by phone and refunds
will be issued as soon as the original register receipt and charge slip (If applicable)
are received. You may transfer to another class in lieu of a refund.
LOCATIONS
Many Community Services classes are held off-campus. Exact locations will be provided
upon registration. If location is critical, please check with our office before
registering.
PARKING
A parking permit is required whenever you park on the Pierce College campus, Monday
through Friday. Permits are available in the Community Services Office. It is your
responsibility to obtain a permit before you park on the campus. Failure to obtain
a permit or to properly display the permit on your vehicle could result in a parking
citation.
TRAFFIC REGULATIONS
All persons driving a vehicle onto Pierce College campus are required to comply
with the traffic laws of the State of California and the rules & regulations
of California Vehicle Code. Violation of laws, rules or regulations may result in
a citation.
Age requirement of Childrens's Classes
When registering your child in an extension class, please remember that the youngster
must be within the age limits identified for each class. Children will be dropped
from class (without refund) if they do not meet the age requirements. Most adult
classes have a minimum age requirement of 18.
STUDENT CONDUCT
Disobedient, disruptive or disorderly behavior exhibited by any student will result
in disciplinary action in accordance with District policies and procedures. Action
may include, but is not limited to, expulsion from class or permanent expulsion
from the Pierce College Extension Community Services program. Parents of minor children
displaying such behavior will be requested to remove their child from class. There
will be no refund for expulsion from class.
SMOKING POLICY
In compliance with LA City ordinance LC 6403:LACCD/BR 2419, there are 20 designated
smoking areas located on campus. In order for Pierce College to avoid an absolute
ban on smoking on campus by the LA City Attorney's Office, smoking on campus
is prohibited outside of these designated areas. Violation of this policy may result
in a citation and fine.
Material Fees
Material fees are for supplies provided by the instructor for additional supplies,
handouts or books. All additional material fees are paid directly to the instructor
and not to Pierce College. Class materials are optional. However, failure to purchase
materials for classes that include them in the course outline may severely impact
a student's ability to participate in class. Students will not receive materials
without paying the materials fee.
Pierce College and LACCD are held harmless for any disputes arising out of any transaction
between the instructor and student.
