Class Cancellations/Transfers
At Blue Dog Studios we strive to bring our students a wide variety of classes, so considerable time and effort goes into making them available. However, we also understand cancellations sometimes occur. In order to keep class costs low for all, we make no exceptions to the following policies:
If Blue Dog Studios cancels: We reserve the right to cancel any scheduled course. Whenever possible, cancellations are made at least one week prior to the beginning of class. All classes are subject to sufficient enrolment and in the unlikely event that we cancel a class due to low enrolment, those who have enrolled will receive a full refund. If a class is cancelled, Blue Dog Studios is not responsible for reimbursing travel costs or other associated expenses.
If you cancel or transfer: Students cancelling more than 10 days before the workshops starts will forfeit 50% of the class fees. Cancellations made fewer than ten days prior to commencement of class will forfeit all payments made.
Transferring to another class will incur a $50 administration fee. Transferring to another class needs to be done prior to 10 days before the class commences.
Transfers are not offered within 10 days of a class staring and all payments made will be forfeited.
Master Classes: Cancellations or transfers received more than 60 days prior to the start of the masterclass will receive a refund 50% of the masterclass fee, Cancellations or transfers received less than 60 days, but more than 21 days, prior to the start of the workshop will receive a refund of 25% of the course fees paid. No refund will be given for cancellations or transfers received less than 21 days prior to the start of the workshop unless the vacancy is filled. If the place is filled, a $150 administration fee will be charged and the remaining course fees refunded.
