** Please note that for some of the classes, payment is taken by using PayPal. As of 2019, PayPal no longer refunds the transaction fee “PayPal Fee” while providing a refund. Therefore if you need a refund issued, it will be returned in full minus the original “PayPal Fee”. This does not go to the Instructor or school; this money goes directly to PayPal to handle the credit card processing and refund processing and the Instructor or school has no control over this. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the Instructor or school ahead of payment. Thank you.
