We know that life, especially in the summer, can come with the unexpected! If you need to cancel your enrollment, here are some points to note about that process.
Please note that the $100 registration fee (deposit) and $25 charter bus deposits are non-refundable.
Sometimes things come up—we understand. If you need to cancel your enrollment before May 1, we ask that you submit your request in writing to syp@mtu.edu. We will process your cancellation and you will be refunded all payments made except for the $100 deposit.
Similarly, if you change your mind about riding the bus, you may receive a refund of all bus payments except for the $25 deposit.
Cancellation is still possible after the payment deadline of May 1 and we ask that you submit your request in writing to syp@mtu.edu. If you need to cancel your enrollment after this date, you will be refunded all payments made except for the $100 deposit and any applicable lab fees for your exploration. If you have concerns, please contact us as soon as you can so we can try to help.
In the unlikely event that your exploration is canceled by the Summer Youth Programs office, we will do our best to help you pick another open exploration. If nothing fits your schedule or appeals to you, we will refund all payments in full.
Course cancellation decisions are based on insufficient enrollment and will be announced in early June following the payment deadline.
Registration fees for Pathway Programs are due within 10 days of acceptance to the program. However, if you are offered a seat after the June 1 payment deadline, we may ask that you make a payment sooner!
If you choose to cancel your enrollment in a Pathway Program before June 1, you will be eligible for a refund of all fees paid (such as bus or early arrival), with the exception of the registration fee.
Cancellation is still possible after the payment deadline of June 1, however refunds will only be granted for extenuating circumstances on a case-by-case basis. If you have concerns, please contact us as soon as you can so we can try to help.
In the event that a bus has insufficient ridership, we reserve the right to cancel the route. If that happens, you will receive a full refund for any bus payments made. We do our best to give cancellation notice by no less than three weeks before the start of your program so that you can make other travel arrangements.
