Do it yourself
Cancel Kaplan yourself
TLDR: A paid Kaplan Test Prep course is canceled by contacting Kaplan. Many graduate, health, and pre-college programs refund 100% of tuition within 3 days of purchase and 75% on days 4 through 7, then nothing from day 8. Bar review and FDP refund 100% of tuition only within 48 hours of getting access. A CertPrep monthly subscription is canceled by calling 1-800-527-8378, and the call has to land at least 3 days before the next monthly charge or that month is billed.
Cancel a paid course

The top of the refund page says a schedule change or a cancellation goes through the contact link. The 'How do I get my refund?' section says that within 3 days, use phone or chat, and give your full name and login email. That phone line is listed Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern, and Saturday and Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern. Some courses have a longer window in their own section.

Cancel a CertPrep monthly subscription
You pay monthly for a Kaplan CertPrep subscription.
- 01Call Customer Care at 1-800-527-8378 (1-800-KAPTEST).
- 02Call at least 3 days before the end of the current subscription month if you want to stop the next charge.
A one-time CertPrep purchase is different. The refund policy says to request that refund on the Contact Us page within 3 calendar days of purchase. A Monday purchase must be in by Thursday.
How to know it worked
- The refund page does not describe a confirmation screen. The money result depends on the product and the day you ask.
- On a CertPrep monthly plan, access to Home and the selected Kaplan services ends at the end of the billing cycle in which you cancel. Unused College Advising or tutoring time is forfeited on the cancellation date. Kaplan says it will try to schedule sessions before that cycle ends.
Watch out for
- Registration, shipping and handling, installment billing, and late fees are not refunded.
- A refund goes to the person who paid, by the method Kaplan chooses, and it cannot be more than Kaplan received. Nothing is refunded after the access period has expired.
- A deposit is refundable when no other payment was made and no access was given.
- customer.care@kaplan.com, on the refund page, is the address for canceling a free product such as a KapAdvisor account.
- Sharing a user id can end access with no refund. Products sold by third parties are outside Kaplan's refund.
- Health-licensing enrollments from before July 1, 2021 use an older proration section on the same page. In-center live lectures from Kaplan Prep & Achieve are pointed to a separate terms page.
