A full refund, minus a $50 cancellation fee per class, will be given for canceled classes if notice is received more than two weeks prior to the camp start date. Please understand that we have made financial commitments to faculty and staff, in addition to purchasing supplies. After that deadline, no refunds will be given unless a program is canceled by OTS. Exceptions will be considered for medical circumstances (a letter from a licensed physician is required). Additionally, OTS reserves the right to change or cancel a camp or program. All efforts will be made to assign students affected to another available camp. If placement is not possible, OTS will offer a full refund or credit for another camp. Camper-initiated schedule changes will incur a change fee of $10 per class.
