 How
do I enroll my son/daughter in WVS?
- Talk
with your student's high school guidance counselor
or principal about receiving credit for courses
taken through WVS.
- Determine
whether your local school will enroll your son/daughter
or prefers that you enroll him/her yourself.
- If
you will be enrolling your son/daughter directly
with WVS, you will need to complete an
enrollment form online.
(Contact
WVS
for a login ID and password to do this)
- After
completing the online enrollment, mail a check or
money order for $325 per Middle school, High School or
Advanced Placement course, $270 per Credit Recovery
course, made payable
to CESA #9 to the address below. We cannot accept credit card payments.
Please include your student's name, school, and
courses they wish to take with your payment.
-
After we receive your payment and enrollment
information, we will send your student his/her username and
password and log-in instructions.
This usually takes 1-2 business days.
- Checks
returned by your bank for insufficient funds will
result in immediate cancellation of your student's
WVS course access.
What
if we change our mind after enrolling and want to
cancel a course?
To
cancel your son/daughter's enrollment and receive
a full refund, please send an e-mail to wvs@wisconsinvirtualschool.org
within 14 calendar days of enrollment
activation.
Drop requests received between
15 and 28 calendar days after enrollment will be eligible
for a partial refund. After 28 days, no refund is
available.
