2. The first $300.00 of payment is considered a deposit and it is never refundable under any circumstance.
3. After April 30, 2010 any cancellation will require that 50% of the total agreed amount will not be refundable. You are still responsible for paying any outstanding amount.

5. Upon cancellation we will discuss options for you to fulfill your payment obligations.
6. Cancellations made after April 30, 2010 may take between 10-12 weeks to refund due to the fact that UCLA requires a prepayment for all rooms we request, regardless of whether or not we use them all.
