Virtual camp refund policy. Cancel seven or more days before your camp's first scheduled day for a full tuition refund, with no processing fees deducted. Cancel fewer than seven days before the first scheduled day and you receive full credit toward another Griot Academy camp or class, valid for 12 months. Once camp begins, tuition is not refundable or creditable, including for missed camp days. If Griot Academy cancels a camp, you receive a full tuition refund. If Griot Academy cancels a camp day and does not reschedule it, you receive a prorated refund for that day. This policy covers Griot Academy's multi-day virtual camps. Regular online classes have their own first-class guarantee. In-person camps and school-partner programs have separate refund and cancellation terms.
