What if a class has under-enrollment?
If less than 4 students are enrolled in a class, we will delay this class by one week in order to gain that minimum number of students. Beyond the delay of one week, we will coordinate with students to either switch to a different schedule if possible, or else receive a full refund.
Why Spanish?
