The Full Refund Program is
a unique plan that is designed to protect participants’ investment
and hard-earned dollars. Three out of four trip participants take
advantage of this Program every year.
If a participant need to cancel prior to trip departure, he will
receive a refund (less the program and all non-refundable fees*),
regardless of the date or the reason. No questions asked. Over the
years, we've made full refunds for unexpected situations including
illness, academic problems, scheduling conflicts, weddings, job
transfers, etc. The program does not make refunds in the event the trip is canceled as a result of or following an act of God, war (whether declared or not), terrorism, civil unrest, or in the event of WorldStrides' bankruptcy, insolvency, or cessation of business.
All requests for cancellation must be made in writing and postmarked
prior to the group’s departure. The modest fee for the Full
Refund Program is added to the total trip price.
*The non-refundable deposit, fees for returned checks, late payments, handling charges, late registration, and merchandise purchases are not refundable.
