THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS, CREDITS OR TRANSFERS AFTER THIS DATE OR AFTER A CLASS HAS BEGUN. Failure to attend class does not warrant consideration for a refund, credit or transfer.
  • There is a $5, $15 or $25 drop fee OR a $50 non-refundable deposit per person per class when a student elects to drop or transfer to another class. Please refer to location slip for exact charges.

Participants will be contacted by phone and refunds will be issued as soon as the original register receipt and charge slip (if applicable) are received.
