The payment deadline for those sending an institutional check is March 6, 2017 with the expectation that we will be contacted by your financial institution by February 2, 2017 to confirm a check is being issued. As long as there are empty spots in the course, we will accept late registrations (regardless of the payment deadline). If you register after the payment deadline has passed, payment is due immediately. Payment and all questions about payment should sent to Stacey Ladieu (sladieu at martinos dot org). Please Allison (astevens at martinos dot org) on your emails with Stacey so she can update your payment status accordingly. ==== Missed Deadlines & Cancellations ==== If payment has not been received by the payment deadline ''or'' in the case of an institutional check, your institution has not contacted Stacey Ladieu (sladieu at martinos dot org) with details of their payment arrangement by that date, your spot will be opened to the waiting list. There is no need to contact us to check whether your payment has gone through - your spot is safe unless ''we'' contact you. Course fees are refundable up to the payment deadline. A $200 fee will be deducted, should you request a refund up to 2 weeks prior to the program. After that, the tuition can be applied to a future program or you can send someone in your place. ## In the case there are less than 40 registrants for the course, the course will be cancelled and the registration fee will be refunded to the registrant. ==== FAQ ==== 1.
