Notes:

**   After a camper has checked in at camp, if they need to leave for any reason, no credits or refunds will be given for the current session or any sessions to follow. Any campers dismissed for cause by USPA or university staff will not receive any credits or refunds for any and all programs for which they are registered. Students sent home in violation of our rules, for medical reasons, at the discretion of the student, family, or US Performing Arts will receive no refund.

**   US Performing Arts reserves the right to cancel any program before its start date. In the unlikely event that a cancellation should occur, you have the option of a complete refund or transfer to another program. Registrant waives all damages that may otherwise arise out of any program cancellation and agrees to accept as liquidated damages said registration fees.

**   USPA highly recommends that students secure travel insurance to cover trip cancellation, interruption, and/or medical emergency. For more on travel insurance, please visit: Assurance Solutions.
