THERE ARE NO REFUNDS ONCE A STUDENT IS REGISTERED
FOR THE PROGRAM.
If a student chooses to attend the program with an established injury
or illness, it is important that they notify American Ballet Theatre
of their condition. If the student’s condition later requires
them to withdraw, they will not be eligible for a refund.
If a student must withdraw due to severe illness or injury that occurs
WHILE ATTENDING the Summer Intensive, they are then
eligible for a PARTIAL REFUND ONLY if a doctor recommends
withdrawal from the program. ABT must receive a physician’s written
verification to confirm the illness or injury. Injured students also
have the option of learning through observation for the remainder of
the program; this option will not result in a partial refund.
Students withdrawing for other reasons are not eligible for a refund.
Partial tuition refunds will be determined on a case-by-case basis by
ABT’s finance committee at the end of the summer.
No Refunds for Dismissal:
All students are expected to conduct themselves in a safe, courteous
and responsible manner. The use of illegal drugs or alcohol is strictly
forbidden and is grounds for immediate dismissal. American Ballet Theatre
reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any student whose conduct,
attitude, or attendance is found to be unsatisfactory. If a student
is dismissed for reasons of unacceptable conduct, there is NO REFUND
on tuition.
Notification:
To notify ABT of a student illness or injury, please contact Elizabeth
Aymong at 212-477-3030, ext. 1178 or eaymong@abt.org,
immediately to discuss the situation. ABT will retain a minimum $150
administrative fee on all requested refunds. Partial tuition refunds
will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by ABT staff. Refunds requested
after May 1, 2013 will be reviewed at the end of the summer and will
not be finalized until September 2013. All refunds requests must be
received no later than 30 days after the student withdrawal date to
be considered.
