Refund Policy

Please select your courses carefully as students are responsible for their course choices. If you have questions about appropriate placement please contact us. In the event that you must withdraw from a course, the following policy will be in effect:

Requests for refunds must be submitted in writing and dated. The postmark or email date will determine eligibility for a refund. All approved refunds take at least 1 week to process. PhotoInstitute.net cannot be responsible for providing refunds for classes or programs missed as a result of student illness, student emergencies, or events beyond PhotoInstitute.net's control.
Workshops and Classes:
Cancellation up to three business days prior to the first class, 100 percent refund, less a $25 withdrawal fee (per course); up to three business days prior to the second class, 80 percent refund, less a $25 withdrawal fee (per course). No refunds/credit are given after that time. However you may apply the cancellation fee (not withdrawal fee of $25) to another workshop or class.
Check Redeposit Fee:
If for any reason a student's check or charge does not clear for payment, an additional fee of $25 will be charged. PhotoInstitute.net does not guarantee placement until payment is resubmitted.
Transfer Fee:
A $25 fee will be charged for all transfers initiated by the student. Transfers from one class to another may only take place before classes begin.

Enrollment Guidelines & Class Absences:
It is not possible for students to make up a missed class by attending an equivalent class on another day. There are no refunds for missed classes.
Cancellations:
Classes are subject to cancellation due to under-enrollment. A full credit or refund will be issued.
Date Changes:
During the term, a class meeting may need to be re-scheduled. A make-up class will be scheduled within the term or added to the end of the course.
Class Auditing:
Auditing of classes is not permitted under any circumstances.

Note that refund will only be send once FULL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED AND HAS BEEN CLEARED.
