Registration Policies and Refunds
Donna Belajac Actors Studio allows new students to audit any of our weekly classes one time at no charge. Students can then observe the instructor’s teaching style and the culture of the class before making the commitment to register for the semester. Email the Enrollment Coordinator at actorsstudio@donnabelajaccasting.com to arrange an audit.
Because our class sizes are small, a certain number of enrollments is necessary for the class to go forward. Therefore, we offer NO REFUNDS in order to limit cancellation of classes due to withdrawals. Please choose your class carefully and enroll when you are sure your schedule allows you to attend weekly and do the prep work required for the course.
In the unlikely event we don’t achieve an enrollment minimum and the class is canceled, we will, of course, promptly refund those who enrolled.
Students are expected to observe professional discipline when enrolling at Donna Belajac Actors Studio. It is the student’s responsibility to contact the instructor when a student cannot attend a class or has a valid reason to be late. Students may be dropped without a refund if repeatedly late, unprepared, or absent.
