Payment and Cancellation Policy

A $750 deposit is required in order to reserve your spot and qualify for the early bird discount. Final prices are set to be announced around November 15, 2011. Once prices are officially announced, you will be notified immediately and you will have 2 weeks to cancel without penalty. After this two week period has concluded, should an application be withdrawn for any reason, a $150 processing fee will be withheld provided such written cancellation is received by March 1, at which point additional cancellation fees will apply. All applicants must complete the second half of the early bird application once the prices are announced

Please note: Additional cancellation fees may apply for all programs. You will be notified of such fees in advance.

USY does not provide trip cancellation or interruption insurance. Please contact your local insurance company or contact the USY office for recommended options.
