What is the process for dropping out of driving school?
2 Answers
The student needs to write an application letter stating the reason for dropping out, and then obtain a withdrawal application form from the driving school. Bring the application letter, withdrawal application, and ID card to the vehicle management office to complete the withdrawal procedures. After completion, return to the vehicle management office to cancel the student's file, which will not affect future driving studies.
Last year I withdrew from driving school, and the process was simpler than I expected. First, I had to go to the driving school office to speak with the management in person and explain my reason for withdrawing, such as a job change leaving me no time for lessons. They provided a withdrawal application form to fill in basic information, plus details like the withdrawal date and reason. Regarding refunds, driving schools usually calculate based on remaining lessons; uncompleted lessons are refundable, though sometimes there’s a small handling fee or penalty, so I advise carefully reviewing the enrollment contract. Bring all original documents, including your ID and payment receipts, to avoid multiple trips. After submission, the school typically reviews and confirms within a day or two, issuing a withdrawal confirmation letter. In my case, the refund took three days to process. The whole process went smoothly—just handle it early and don’t delay. After withdrawing, when choosing a new driving school, research locations and services thoroughly to avoid future hassles.
