School Policies
REFUNDS AND CREDITS
Full refunds or full school credits are available until 24 hours before your first group class begins. If you phone to cancel your registration 24 hours before your second or third class begins, a partial prorated school credit can be given. If your class has met three times or it is less than 24 hours before your third class, no school credit is available. There are no refunds or credits for concerts and workshops.
CANCELLATIONS
Louisville Folk School reserves the right to cancel a class due to insufficient registration. Our group classes are an excellent value and are designed to strengthen the community by connecting students to folks with similar interests. However, we need a minimum of three students in each class to be financially sustainable - please invite your friends to enroll in a class with you! Classes without sufficient registration at the end of the first class will be canceled, and you may be issued a refund, but we would love to help you to find an alternate class to join.
24-hour advance notice is required to reschedule any private lessons. Lessons canceled with less than 24 hours' notice will not be made up or refunded.
CLASSES
The curriculum is designed to encourage each student to master the skills taught at each individual class level. Folk School instructors will help guide their students as to which next class would be best for them. Students are encouraged to stay in a class until their skill level is appropriate for the next class level. It can be very beneficial to take a particular class more than once to ensure a solid foundation before moving on to the next level.
