*Tuition must be paid in full before the workshop dates.
• If you run into any issues with registering for the payment plan, don't hesitate to email us at info@merakoh.com. Our team will get you set up right away.
CANCELLATION POLICY
If for some reason you should need to cancel up to 45 days before the workshop weekend, we will apply your payment(s) as credit to a future CONFIDENCE or online workshop within 24 months of your original workshop.
If you need to cancel within the 45 days leading up to the workshop, we will do our best to fill your spot and apply your payment(s) to a future workshop within the next 24 months. But we can't guarantee this. If your spot cannot be filled within the 45 days, your workshop payment(s) will be forfeited. This is the policy for all our online and in-person workshops, excluding our travel "Portrait of the World" workshops.
