Disability Services Office of Accessibility Services (OAS) provides ser­vices to students with disabilities. Services are coordinated for individuals with disabilities includ­ing, but not limited to, those with physical, learning, mental health, chronic health or sensory related disabilities. Once students have self-identi­fied, applied for services, and provided documentation of their disability, our staff works to determine eligibility for reasonable accommo­dations. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), both the student and the college must carry out these responsibilities in a timely manner. The OAS office is in Room 348 of the Shepard Student Center in Middletown and can be reached at (845) 341-4077. For ODS in Newburgh, call (845) 341-9034. Refund/Policy 100%, if written request is received prior to first day of class. There will be no refunds on the day the class begins and thereafter.

Students unable to attend the courses they regis­tered for must inform the Continuing and Professional Education department in writing that they wish to withdraw. Failure to complete the course does not constitute official withdrawal, nor does notification of the instructor. The lack of attendance alone does not entitle the student to a refund. Refund requests cannot be made by telephone, online, or through the instructor. Course Cancellation All Continuing and Professional Education courses are subject to minimum enrollment requirement. When courses are cancelled by the College for any reason, students may transfer payment to another course or receive a full refund.

Course locations, dates, fees, and instructors may also be changed when necessary. Check our website for the most up to date information regarding course offerings, schedule, locations and fees.
