Correspondence Course Policies

Upon registration for correspondence or on-line courses students are automatically subject to the Wild Rose College policies listed below.

• When a minimum of $1,495 worth of correspondence/on-line courses are purchased in a single transaction, the College will issue a 20% discount on the course fees. Books and GST not included.
• When more than one correspondence/on-line course is paid for at one time, 10% of the fee for the lesser priced course will be deducted.
• Current full-time attendance at another secondary or post-secondary school qualifies students for a 10% discount on correspondence/on-line fees. Student ID is required.
• Senior citizens (60+) are eligible for a 10% discount on correspondence/on-line course fees.
• At the time of purchase and regardless of whether one or more correspondence/on-line courses are purchased, students are given one year to complete their course work. The exception is when a purchase of $1,495 or more is made, in which case students are given a number of years to complete courses.
• The amount of time needed to complete a single correspondence/on-line course is dependent on how much time a student spends each day/week/month on their studies. Students are encouraged to proceed at their own pace with the one year completion date in mind. Six-month study extension periods may be granted on an individual basis.
• A Help Desk service is available to assist students with their correspondence/on-line course material. Students may contact a college tutor via e-mail at helpdesk@wrc.net.
