College for Kids

 

Registration and Payment
There are two ways to register for College for Kids.

ON-LINE REGISTRATION provides a convenient and easy method to quickly register your child/children for classes. To register on-line, payment must be made with either a VISA or MasterCard. To access the on-line registration link CLICK HERE. If you are registering on-line you will receive a class confirmation by e-mail immediately after you register. Please note that if you register on-line you will need to print and complete the Medical Release form. Additionally, if you are registering for a class that uses a computer lab (see notations on class schedules) you will also need to print and complete the Computer Access form. Please return both the medical and computer access forms to the address listed below. For security reasons we cannot accept faxed registration forms.

MANUAL REGISTRATION is for those families without computer access or those who prefer to pay with a personal check, cash, or money order. A registration form is included in the College for Kids brochure and may also be printed from the forms menu to the left. Paper registration forms may be duplicated for registering multiple children. To receive the brochure direct to your door, please join our mailing list. If payment is made by check or money order, please make payable to Penn State University. If you wish to pay by credit card and do not have access to the on-line system, please call 898-6212 and we will gladly help you process your registration. All classes will be billed in full if using a credit card. For security reasons we cannot accept faxed registration forms.

Medical Authorization and Release Form
All students must have medical insurance coverage to attend this program. Please note that your registration is not complete until your payment, registration, and medical information have been received. If you are registering on-line you must print and complete the Medical Release form, and mail to the address listed above for your registration to be complete. No physical exam is required.

Computer Access Accounts Usage Policy and Form
Penn State policy states that anyone who will be using the University's computer labs must have a Computer Access Account. Parents or guardians are required to complete the Computer Access form to establish this account. If your child is attending a class which indicates See Computer Access Accounts, you must additionally print and complete this form and mail to the address listed above (along with the 'Medical Authorization and Release' form) for your registration to be complete.

Waiting Lists for Full Classes
In an attempt to keep our classes small they fill up quickly. If you register through the mail and the class you have selected is full, you will be contacted to either be placed on the waiting list or given the opportunity to select an alternative class. If you register on-line and your class selection indicates "full or not available", please email Mary Trott to be placed on a waiting list pending an available class opening.

Cancellation/Refund Policy
The University may cancel or postpone any course or activity because of insufficient enrollment or other unforeseen circumstances. If a program is cancelled or postponed, the University will refund registration fees but cannot be held responsible for any other related costs, charges, or expenses.

If for any reason a parent or guardian must cancel a child's class registration, the cancellation must be received in writing by the College for Kids program coordinator at least ten days in advance of the class. The cancellation will then be processed by Penn State and a refund will be available to the parent in approximately four weeks. If payment was made by credit card a refund will be made within seven working days. If a cancellation is requested after the class begins a refund cannot be made. If the parent cancels within the ten-day period a $25 fee will be assessed.

Access
Penn State encourages qualified individuals with disabilities to participate in its programs and activities. If you anticipate needing special accommodations or have questions about the physical access provided, please contact the program coordinator at 814-898-6212 a minimum of seven days prior to the beginning of your camp.
