Class Cancellation, Withdrawal And Refund Policy

Enrollment is limited in our courses and workshops and your participation is important to us. Once you have enrolled, we are counting on you to attend. If DAC cancels a course you will receive a full refund. Please allow 3-4 weeks for processing. Students will be contacted by email for class cancellations. A Participant wishing to withdraw from a class that has not been cancelled by DAC must provide a written request at least one week before the scheduled start of the class. Please email jbell@durhamarts.org. They may receive a full refund minus a $10 processing fee per participant per class. Please allow 3-4 weeks for processing. Within the week prior to the start of a class or after a class has begun, refunds or credits will not be given. In the case of verified medical/hardships a credit may be given. DAC must be contacted in writing before the course ends for a credit to be considered for a verified medical hardship. Any credit you receive from DAC will be valid for one year from the date you notify us and must be used by someone on the same account as original registrant. DAC will not extend credit or provide make up classes for occasional classes missed due to illness or other circumstances.

Instructor Substitutions

DAC School tries to schedule instructors well in advance of each term. On occasion, unforeseen circumstances require DAC to substitute instructors. The substitution of an instructor does not qualify you for a refund.
