RSU5 Community Programs reserves the right to cancel or consolidate any program that doesn't meet minimum participant registration numbers. If a class or activity is cancelled we will do so at least five (5) business days before the scheduled start date. Early registration helps assure activities won't be cancelled. If a course is cancelled, registrants will be refunded or credited 100% of the class fee. Online registration convenience fees are non-refundable. Accounts will be credited for all refunds under $10. When a check is requested for a larger refund, allow up to three weeks for the refund to process. Credit and debit card refunds will be processed immediately if the original transaction was paid with a card. We cannot process cash refunds.
