Take One!
- How do I submit my withdrawal request?
- Can I withdraw from Take One! and request a refund?
- What if I can't complete my Take One! entry by the submittal deadline?
- I became a participant in Take One! during the 2008-2009 cycle and had to defer to the 2009-2010 cycle. When I returned to class this school year, my teaching assignment changed and my students are in a different age group. Can I change my certificate choice after deferring? If so, what is my deadline?
