Do it yourself
Cancel BARBRI yourself
TLDR: Email service@barbri.com and cancel the paid bar review enrollment. On the standard U.S. bar agreement, do it before 12:00 a.m. CDT on the fifth business day after the agreement date, and before printed materials arrive and online access starts, for a refund of what you paid minus any stipend, device, or promo item already sent. Once materials ship or online access starts, that agreement says the enrollment can no longer be cancelled, except where the law or a state notice requires it. Payments up to $295 are non-refundable unless the law says otherwise.
Email a cancellation for U.S. bar review
You enrolled in a U.S. bar review course under the U.S. bar enrollment agreement. That agreement names Premium, Elite, Firm Pass, Firm Pass Plus, and U.S. Bar Prep (International).
- 01Email service@barbri.com.
- 02Say you are cancelling the enrollment, and name the course. The agreement asks for written notice and does not list a form.
- 03For the fullest refund, send it before 12:00 a.m. CDT on the fifth business day after the agreement date, and before printed materials are received and before online access starts.
After that fifth-business-day deadline, you can still email the same address if printed materials have not shipped and online access has not started. You then forfeit the non-refundable registration fee and the value of any stipend, device, or promo item already issued. Once materials have shipped or been received, or online access has started, the agreement says the enrollment may no longer be cancelled except as the law or a state notice requires.
Email a cancellation for Extended U.S. Bar Prep
You enrolled in Extended U.S. Bar Prep. That agreement uses a different window.
- 01Email service@barbri.com within 14 days after the date BARBRI confirms your registration.
- 02Say you are cancelling the Extended U.S. Bar Prep enrollment.
For students outside the European Union and the United Kingdom, that agreement says BARBRI may deduct a registration or administrative charge of up to $295 from a refund in that 14-day window, unless the law requires a different result. After printed materials ship or online access starts, it says the enrollment may no longer be cancelled except as the law or a specific notice requires.
How to know it worked
- Keep the email. The U.S. bar agreement does not say BARBRI sends a separate cancellation number.
- A transfer or a deferral is not a cancellation. A transfer request also goes to service@barbri.com, and if they approve one they may charge a $75 transfer fee.
- The Nevada Exam Prep agreement, posted on the same terms page, says the email should include your name, the course, and the order number, and that the cancellation is effective the day BARBRI receives it. That is a different course from the standard U.S. bar agreement.
Watch out for
- Unless the law requires otherwise, payments up to $295 are non-refundable. A promotion can use a non-refundable registration fee of up to $295.
- To avoid a $75 late fee, the U.S. bar agreement says the full balance is due by April 15 for the July course or November 15 for the February course, unless BARBRI approved a different schedule. An overdue payment that is still unpaid 10 days later can draw another $75 late fee, and access can be suspended.
- Louisiana applicants: the state notice says $150 of the $295 registration fee is non-refundable, and the charge rises with how much of the program is done. After the first 15%, 20% of tuition plus the registration fee. After the first 25%, 30% plus the registration fee. Between 25% and 50%, 55% plus the registration fee. After the first 50%, 100% of tuition plus the registration fee. They compute that on clock hours.
- Nevada applicants: cancel before instruction starts and the charge is 10% of tuition or $150, whichever is less, plus the materials lease deposit and shipping if you already received materials. After instruction starts, and before you complete more than 60%, the charge is the registration fee plus a pro rata share of tuition, plus the materials lease deposit and shipping. Instruction starts when materials ship or when online access starts, whichever comes first.
- Employer billing is a different arrangement. If what you paid is less than the value of a stipend, device, or promo item you do not return, the U.S. bar agreement says you still owe the difference.
- The terms page also posts separate agreements for other products, including 1L Exam Success, MPRE, and PowerScore. Those deadlines are not the U.S. bar deadline. Name the course in the email.
- Questions and complaints can go to BARBRI, Inc., 12222 Merit Dr., Ste 1340, Dallas, TX 75251, or legal@barbri.com. The cancellation email in the enrollment agreement is service@barbri.com.
BARBRI refunds
- Before 12:00 a.m. CDT on the fifth business day, if printed materials have not been received and online access has not started, BARBRI refunds payments made, minus the value of any tech stipend, device, or other promotional item already issued.
- After that deadline, but before materials ship and before online access starts, you forfeit the non-refundable registration fee and the value of any stipend, device, or promo item already issued.
- After materials ship or online access starts, the U.S. bar agreement says the enrollment may no longer be cancelled, except as the law or a state notice requires.
- A $250 printed-materials deposit, plus shipping and handling if charged, is separate. They refund that deposit if you paid the course in full, paid the deposit, and return all of the printed materials, at your expense, within 30 days after your jurisdiction releases bar exam results. They process that refund within 75 days after they receive the materials. If you keep any, or return them late, you lose the whole deposit.
