College for Kids

Registration is now open...classes fill quickly, so hurry!
 

Registration
Registration is scheduled to open on May 15th and will remain open until late July. As classes fill quickly, early registration is encouraged.

Payment, registration, medical, and computer access forms must be received at least one week prior to each class. To proceed to on-line registration, please click here and select "College for Kids at Penn State Behrend" from the e-store menu. 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.

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.

Payment Options
We accept personal checks, cash, money orders, and VISA and MasterCard credit cards. Checks and money orders should be made 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 purposes, we do not allow the faxing of credit card information.

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 registration for a class, 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 is then processed by Penn State's University Park campus, and a refund will be available to the parent in approximately four weeks. If you pay 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.
