Other ACC Refunds

Besides the tuition fee refund when you drop class, you can also receive your money back for other things the Austin Community College has in store for you.

  • First Day Book Fee
  • Parking Permits

First Day Book Fee Refund

If you change your mind about getting First Day books, but you already paid for them, you need to submit your refund request on your course’s site on Blackboard. You can do so by 5 p.m., but check the important dates to see on which exact days, so you don’t miss your chance.

Parking Permit Refund

In the event that you purchased a parking permit and you want ACC to give you your money back, you can request a refund for these three reasons:

  1. Your classes were canceled
  2. You withdrew from the classes before the start day
  3. You bought the parking permit by accident

In these situations, you should submit a parking permit fee refund request form to the ACC Cashier Office on the fourth floor at Highland Business Center.
