Punctuality:

- Workshops begin at their scheduled time as per the contract.
- There will be a 10 minute grace period allowed by both parties before the session is deemed as delayed.
- A delay by the client(s) of 15 minutes beyond the designated start time of the presentation draws an additional fee of $50. A delay of 30 minutes beyond the designated start time of the presentation draws a fee of $100. Additional fees must be paid BEFORE presentation begins.
- A delay greater than 30 minutes will be deemed as a No-Show. Extenuating circumstances can be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
- A No-Show by the client(s) results as a forfeiture of the scheduled service and No Refund.
- A No-Show by Scholars Path will result in a re-scheduling (and completion) within 30 calendar days of the missed service. Client will also receive a 10% discount for the re-scheduling of this missed service upon completion. The client’s 2nd choice is a full refund within 7 business days after the No-Show. Client(s) will select their option.
Re-scheduling:
Re-scheduling after a booking has been confirmed will be based on availability and written approval by both parties.
- If the re-scheduling request is initiated by the client(s) or their designee and after 7 calendar days a new date cannot be mutually agreed upon and the current booked date can no longer be honored by the client(s) or their designee, it will be considered a cancellation. The policy for cancellations by the client(s) or their designee will apply.

Cancellations:
- Cancellation by the client(s) or their designee within 6 business days of the event results in forfeiture of their down payment.
- Cancellation by the client(s) or their designee 6 business days or more before the event results in a $100 cancellation fee and the balance being returned within 7 business days through the same payment channels originally received.
- Cancellation by Scholars Path will result in a full refund to the client(s) within 7 business days through the same payment channels as originally
received.
Attendance:
For group settings, attendance counts generally fluctuate during the preparation period. With this in mind, Scholars Path is aware that the initial count of attendees is a best guess.
- Should the attendee count increase from the contracted number of attendees, the additional costs per attendee will be added to the balance owed. The client(s) or his/her designee will assume agreement that the new count is the final count.
- Scholars Path strives to ensure our youth are engaged and focused during the workshop. In an effort to minimize disruptions, late arrivals (15 minutes after class starts) will not be allowed. (In-Person or Virtual)
- Scholars Path will conduct and provide an attendance count to the client(s) or his designee 30 to 45 minutes after the start of the workshop.
Payment:

- PayPal B. Square
- The down payment (1/2 of the total) is required at signing of contract. Once both items are received, an email will be sent confirming the booking to the designee’s email.
