The remaining fifty percent (50%) is due within thirty (30) days following the end of the course.

Monthly payment plans are available only by special arrangement and must be approved and established prior to the start of the course. 17.2 Company Pay When tuition and related charges are paid by a student’s employer or sponsoring organization, the school will invoice the responsible entity prior to the start of the course. All invoiced amounts are due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date unless otherwise agreed to in writing. Upon satisfactory completion of all academic and skill requirements and when all financial obligations to the school have been met, the school will award a Certificate of Completion. The student and school understand that this Agreement may not be amended except in writing and signed by both parties. 17.3 Refund Policy Students who withdraw or are administratively withdrawn from a course or program after instruction begins may be eligible for a pro-rata refund based on the portion of the course completed through the effective date of withdrawal. Refund calculations are based on the following: Refunds are calculated to the exact date of withdrawal. Tuition and instructional charges will not exceed the proportional amount owed based on the length of the course completed. Instructional materials included within tuition and accessed during the course are non-refundable once instruction begins. ODSA does not charge an application, enrollment, or registration fee. Students who withdraw or cancel enrollment prior to the first scheduled class session will receive a 100% refund of tuition paid. Written notice of withdrawal or cancellation must be submitted to the Academy prior to the first scheduled class session for a full refund to apply. The effective date of withdrawal or cancellation shall be the date written notice is received by the Academy. Refunds for students withdrawn due to attendance, conduct, or administrative dismissal will be calculated according to this refund policy and applicable Nebraska Department of Education requirements. 17.4 Refund Policy for Cancellation Before Course Begins An applicant or student who cancels enrollment before the official start date of the course will receive a 100% refund of all tuition and fees paid, provided that written notice of cancellation is submitted to the Academy prior to the first scheduled class session. Omaha Data Science Academy does not charge an application fee or enrollment fee. Therefore, all amounts paid prior to the start of instruction are fully refundable upon timely cancellation. Written notice of cancellation may be submitted by email, mail, or other written communication accepted by the Academy. The effective date of cancellation will be the date the written notice is received. Because no application or enrollment fee is charged, no portion of tuition or fees will be withheld for administrative costs when a student cancels prior to the course start date. 17.5 Veterans Benefits and Transition Act of 2018 Policy for Veteran Students Utilizing VA GI Bill® Education Benefits Consistent with the Veterans Benefits and Transition Act of 2018, Section 3679 of title 38, United States Code, Section 103, Omaha Data Science Academy will not impose any penalties due to the delayed disbursement of a payment by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs on recipients of Chapter 31 and Chapter 33 VA Benefits.
