Class Size Overage Calculation Clause Samples
The Class Size Overage Calculation clause defines how to determine when the number of participants in a class exceeds a specified limit and how any excess is handled. Typically, this clause outlines the maximum allowable class size and details the method for calculating additional charges or adjustments if enrollment surpasses that threshold. For example, if a class is capped at 30 students but 35 enroll, the clause would specify how the extra five students are accounted for, often resulting in additional fees. Its core function is to ensure fairness and transparency in managing class capacity and associated costs, preventing disputes over unexpected overages.
