Senior Citizen Discount for Ridgefield Residents

Ridgefield Continuing Education offers a discount on tuition to Seniors, age 62 and older who are Ridgefield residents, provided that the course they want has sufficient enrollment to sustain the discount and the registration and payment procedures are followed. Small classes may have a lower discount than other classes. In a few cases a discount is not available.

Your registration must be received at least 3 business days before the first day of class (detailed below) in order to receive the discount. A discount is NOT available to people who have not paid before the first day of class (i.e. if you show up for class and have not paid, the discount is not available).

Three business days before the first class means: Payment is due the Friday before the first class for all classes starting on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. Payment is due the Monday before the first class for all classes starting on a Thursday. Payment is due the Tuesday before the first class for all classes starting on a Friday.

Senior Citizen / Disabled Discount:

Senior Citizens are those 62 years of age or older. (Sr./Disab.) means discounted fee for senior citizens age 62 and older and people with disabilities who live in Ridgefield, provided that the course they want has sufficient enrollment to sustain the discount and and they have registered and and paid in advance per below (even if you have been taking the class in the past) in order to receive the discount. Non-residents do not receive any discounts. For more information please see Seniors / Disabled Only.

Registration Deadline and Payment: You may register by mail or phone. Payment in full must accompany your registration, which must be paid and received in advance. We decide whether or not to run a class at least 3 days before the first class (some teachers need a decision sooner) based on the number of people who have paid their tuition. Don’t let a class be cancelled due to participant procrastination. Checks (our customary method, preferred to keep costs down) and money orders are preferred. As an alternative method of payment, Visa and MasterCard are accepted and a convenience/service fee for Visa or MasterCard payment will be added to your charge total as follows: $2.95 (subtotal thru $97), 2.99% (subtotal of $98 or higher); per person, per order. There is a $20 service fee for returned checks.

This discount may be applied to:

• Nearly any course in this catalog, except ed2go classes, Event and Ballroom Dance, one on one tutorials, and a few others. If a discount is not available, a senior price will not be listed.
  
• Unlimited number of courses.

This discount is not applicable to food fees, texts and supplies.

The discount is not applicable to ed2go instructor-facilitated online classes.
