Collegiate/Departmental Program Cancellation Policy
Participants who wish to cancel must provide official notification in writing by mail or email. Include the reasons for cancellation from the program. Participants, not their home institution and/or power of attorney, are responsible for notification.
Notification should be sent to: Your program's faculty leader.
Cancellation is effective from the date postmarked on the written notice, or, for email, the date received by the faculty leader. Participants will continue to accrue non-recoverable costs based on the chart below until official notification is received.
Participants are responsible for all program fees until notification is received by the program leader. Institutions paying on behalf of the participant are responsible for all program fees until official notice of cancellation by the student is received by the program's faculty leader. It is the student’s responsibility to also notify the institution paying their program fees of their cancellation from the program.
Refund Policy
The application fee, if applicable, and confirmation deposit for all collegiate/departmental programs are non-refundable.
The program's faculty leader guarantees space on the program for the participant upon receipt of the non-refundable confirmation deposit. At this point, the program incurs certain non-recoverable costs. Therefore, any participant who cancels at any time after the confirmation deposit has been received will be responsible for the program deposit in addition to the following, upon cancellation from the program:
| Cancellation Period | Penalty |
|---|---|
| 60 days or more before start of program | deposit (if applicable) |
| 45– 59 days before start of program | 25% |
| 30– 44 days before start of program | 50% |
| 15– 29 days before start of program | 75% |
| 14 days or less before start of program | Full program fee |
These penalties are the minimum amounts due. Participants will be held financially liable for all non-recoverable costs that exceed these amounts.
The information contained in this Cancellation and Refund Policy supersedes any verbal or other written information that anyone may receive regarding this policy.
