Matriculated University of Washington students should contact Dina Johnson at 206-685-6365 or dcjohnson@extn.washington.edu to register for online sections of the Academic English Program.

Withdrawals and Refunds: If you withdraw in writing by the end of the first business day of the course, you will receive a refund of the course fee, but not the $30 registration fee. You may FAX your withdrawal to 206-685-9359. Be sure to sign your FAX. There is no refund for withdrawals after the first day of the course. If you stop doing the online assignments, this will not mean you have officially withdrawn. FAX a withdrawal letter by the final day of class if you want to avoid receiving a record of unsuccessful completion.
