Registration Policies:

Refunds/Transfers: A $15.00 processing fee applies for each activity session refunded. Refund/transfer requests must be made in writing to the respective program office either in person or by fax, mail, or email. Class refunds and transfers will be issued only if requested within one day after the first class meeting. Camp refunds will be issued only with medical documentation or if requested within five calendar days prior to the first meeting. Refunds will be prorated.

Cancellations: A full refund will be granted if the activity is cancelled. All dates, times, locations, and instructors are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to combine classes as needed or cancel programs due to insufficient enrollment. Due to the organizational needs of group classes, we are not able to offer makeups for days missed by the student.

Material Fees: For classes and camps with material fees, they are payable to the instructor in cash on the first day of class. Material fees are not discountable or refundable.
