Can I defer enrollment to a future year?


Deferred Enrollment: Deferring enrollment to a Sustainable Summer program in the next calendar year is allowed based on the following schedule:

Prior to April 1st

Enrollment can be deferred to a Sustainable Summer program in the next calendar year by rolling over the initial enrollment deposit.

Between April 1st and April 31st

Enrollment can be deferred to a Sustainable Summer program in the next calendar year by rolling over the full amount of tuition paid.

On or after May 1st

Deferred enrollment is not allowed and there are no tuition refunds. We will consider extenuating circumstances at our sole discretion and without obligation.

NOTE: Tuition rates for future programs may increase and you are not grandfathered into a rate. Any tuition previously paid will post as a credit to your account. We are only able to offer the deferred enrollment option for one year and only to the participant or a participant’s sibling. The refund and cancellation policies in place at the time of your deferment will apply for one year. After one year, the current refund and cancellation policies will apply. For instance, deferment to a future program on March 15th would subject only the non-refundable enrollment deposit to cancellation penalty until March 15th one year later with any additional tuition payments fully refundable up until that time. On March 16th, (one year and one day from your deferment) you would enter whatever Sustainable Summer’s current refund and cancellation policies are at that time. Similarly, deferringĀ  enrollment on April 15th would lock in 50% of the current tuition obligation as non-refundable. The bottom line here is that rolling over tuition or enrollment deposits does not offer a pathway in which to request a full refund in a future year.
