    Answers:

    Is there an additional fee for the payment plan option?

    There is a processing fee of $5.00 for each partial payment set up for your child’s trip.


    If I had a personal check returned, can I still send another personal check to make a payment?

    Unfortunately, when your bank returns one of your checks, we must require guaranteed funds for any further payments. We will accept a cashier’s check, money order, or credit card. There is a charge of $35.00 for returned checks.

    What payment plan is set for registrants?
    Most registrants are offered two payment options: pay off the remaining balance in full within 30 days of registration, or 2) follow an easy payment plan to spread out your payments. Because each registrant has a unique payment plan, we strongly recommend that you call our Customer Service Department toll free at 1-800-468-5899 for details about your payment plan. All registrants must have paid for their trip in full at least 75 days prior to departure (for some programs, payment in full may be required earlier).

    If I choose the regular payment plan, can a payment be skipped?
    All payments are required and must be submitted by the due date indicated on your invoices. If you do not recall when your next payment is due, contact our automated Customer Service answering system 24 hours a day, toll free at 1-800-468-5899. Using your account number, you will be able to check your current balance, your last payment submitted, and details about future payments including due date and amount.

    If my final payment arrives late, what happens?

    A $60.00 late fee* is added to your account if your balance is not paid in full by the final payment deadline stated on your invoice (usually 75 days prior to departure.) In addition, the trip participant is placed on a waitlist, and accommodations are not guaranteed. All payments received after the final payment deadline must be in the form of a cashier’s check, money order, or credit card (no personal or business checks). If you find it necessary to pay after the deadline, please contact one of our Customer Service Representatives toll free at 1-800-468-5899 to confirm the status of your child’s registration.

    *$40.00 late fee applied for some groups traveling in 2007.

    How long do credit card payments take to process?
    Credit card payments are processed instantly

    When is fund raising money due?
    Fund raising money from the school is due in our office by the final payment deadline (75 days prior to departure).
