Policies and Guidelines

To ensure enrollment, please register as soon as possible and no-later than one week prior to the start date of the class (unless otherwise noted) as class space is limited.

Tuition fees are due in full at time of enrollment. Class fees will not be pro-rated for late enrollment.

All tuition will be refunded for classes cancelled.

You will be notified if the class for which you are registering is full.

Adult classes are open to students ages 18 and above unless otherwise noted.

UTSA reserves the right to refuse enrollment or dismiss any student for behavior that is disruptive or unacceptable to the learning environment.

Open studio time varies by department and is available to registered students only, and only when no classes are scheduled. Please see your instructor for studio times. Use of the studios for commercial production work is discouraged.

Withdraws, Transfers & Cancellations

A $45 withdrawal fee and a $25 transfer fee will be charged per class for changes made by students. Students must send UTSA notice of withdrawal in writing. This notice must be received no later than 7 days before the first day of class. No refunds will be made for withdrawals made after those times. Notice of withdrawal for SPECIAL CLASSES must be received within 2 weeks prior to the class. Failure to attend classes or verbal notification will not be regarded as an official notice of withdrawal.

UTSA reserves the right to cancel, combine or reschedule classes, or to change class instructors when necessary. Tuition will be refunded 100% for classes cancelled by UTSA. If UTSA cancels a class for any reason, all registered participants will be informed as soon as possible and extended the opportunity to transfer to another class; no transfer fee will be applied.
