The student must pay all lab fees or additional fees for any course. Please check space availability by calling 352-395-5193. Some classes do not allow senior waivers.

You may register for remaining class space beginning the first day classes meet, at the class meeting site. Classes without sufficient enrollment will be cancelled. Some classes have registration deadlines. Please call the Community Education office at 352-395-5193 to check on seat availability or possible changes to a class.
Refunds
You may drop a class and receive a full refund if the request is made 48 business hours before the class occurs or the posted refund deadline (see course info for details). Please call 352-395-5193 or email comm-ed@sfcollege.edu to request the refund. After that time, you'll need to petition for refund.

Cancelled Classes
Community Education reserves the right to cancel classes based on low enrollment or other causes. The student will be notified in advance, and a full refund will be provided. Refunds will not be credited to your credit card; instead, you will receive a refund check in the mail within 4-6 weeks.
