THE RULES:
–ALL REGISTRATIONS must be made at least FOUR (4) calendar weeks (28 days) before the start of your course. If your only option is less than four weeks away, input your registration, and IMMEDIATELY contact Crystal Schneider (cschneider@amnh.org).
–IF you have signed up for a course that starts more than 3 months from now, please note that we cannot yet submit your registration to Kaplan. They only accept registrations within a 3-month window. We will submit your information to them once we are within that time frame, and you will receive an email confirmation directly from Kaplan at least 2 weeks prior to the start of your course.
–No course is guaranteed – from time to time, Kaplan needs to change their schedules. If your course is cancelled or changed, they will work with you to find another course.
–You may only sign up for the types of courses listed above. Our agreement does not cover private tutoring courses, or courses in other tests.
–All “in person” classes must be taken at a site within the 5 boroughs of NYC. There are usually many options including at Kaplan buildings, but also at schools, churches, community centers, and other locations throughout the city.
–Lang students may take one SHSAT course, and one SAT or ACT course.
–Science Alliance students may take one SHSAT course.
–SRMP, BridgeUp, and Saltz students may take one SAT or ACT course.
–Once a course has started, you are responsible for finishing it, and we cannot change your registration.
