  • Fees are non-transferable between students. Paid tuition fees from a McKenzie College program may be transferred to other McKenzie College programs with a minimum of 2 weeks' notice. No transfer fee will be incurred. The transferable amount will be prorated based on weekly fees for the actual number of weeks studied. The transferable amount will be counted toward tuition fees for the new program, with any outstanding fee difference payable upon invoice. No refund will be given in the event that new program tuition fees total less than the fees already paid. There is a transfer fee of $50.00 if the number of weeks studied is under two weeks.
     

  • Students may defer classes for vacation purposes with a notice of at least 4 weeks. Missed material is the responsibility of the student.
     

  • McKenzie College may be required to share attendance and progress records of students with the Canadian government, in accordance with any applicable federal and provincial privacy legislation.
     

  • Group classes are required to have 3 students to be held at full hours. If the number of students drops below 3 at any time during the course, students will be switched to semi-private (two student) or private lessons (one student).
