Withdrawals and Refunds

If a course is canceled or closed, the registrant is notified immediately, and a full refund is processed automatically unless another course is requested. Registrants who wish to withdraw from an active course must complete the online Odyssey Refund Request Form. Attach any documentation to support your request (e.g., medical documentation, family crisis documentation, etc.).

• 100% refund: Prior to the start of the course and after the first class.
• No refunds: After the first week of each course unless in exceptional cases.

For single-session courses: 100% refundable within two (2) business days of the event.

Please note, refunds apply only to the tuition portion of an Odyssey participant’s charges and are not applicable to any fees or gifts made to the Johns Hopkins Alumni Association. Registrants will be notified by email if a refund is approved within five (5) business days.

Certificate of Aging Update

The Certificate of Aging program is discontinued. Any future iterations of the program are under review by the School of Education to comply with current International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET) standards. Should the program resume, any previous coursework taken toward the Certificate of Aging requirements will be reviewed by the School of Education on a case-by-case basis against future standards and criteria.
