Group Class Attendance/Make-up Policy

Wolf Trap will cancel any class with insufficient registration, and tuition will be refunded in full. We do not guarantee make-up classes for those cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control (e.g. weather). We do not offer make-up classes due to a participant’s nonattendance, illness, vacation, etc.


Private Piano/Voice/Guitar Lessons Attendance/Make-up Policy

It is the responsibility of students to attend their regularly-scheduled private lessons. Make-up lessons will be scheduled only if lessons are missed due to instructor absence or closure of Wolf Trap offices. In the event of a Wolf Trap closing or instructor cancellation, one make-up for each such date will be scheduled by the Wolf Trap staff. Make-ups for private lessons may be offered in the form of a group master class at the discretion of the instructor. Classes are not transferrable. Make-up lessons will not be scheduled due to student nonattendance, illness, vacation, etc.
