CMI Policies

Payment Policy 

CMI Invoices are emailed at the beginning of each term of participation, with the exception of Chamber Players which is billed in Fall Term for the entire year of participation. Payments are due in full within 30 days of date of invoice. If payments are not received within 30 days, a late fee will be applied to the balance due. All invoices must be paid in full before you may register for a subsequent term

Absence and Make-Up Policies

INDIVIDUAL LESSONS
If a teacher is absent for or cancels a scheduled lesson, the lesson(s) will be made up during the current term. Each student is allowed one make-up lesson due to illness or family emergency. No refunds or make-up lessons will be granted for additional student absences.

CHAMBER PLAYERS
Small ensemble coachings require full participation for maximum educational value. Every student's weekly presence matters. Families must contact CMI at cmi@uoregon.edu in the case of any planned or emergency student absence. Multiple absences may result in the student being replaced for 1) the performance only or 2) the remainder of the term, including the performance.

Inclement Weather Policy

CMI's delay and cancellation procedures will follow University of Oregon campus-wide decisions. Events canceled due to inclement weather will not be rescheduled.

Withdraw Policy

Students wishing to withdraw from a program must email the CMI Business Office at cmi@uoregon.edu. Refunds will be considered based on the conditions of the withdrawl.

INDIVIDUAL LESSONS
Lesson payment for the term are not retroactively adjustable.

CHAMBER PLAYERS
It is the goal of CMI to foster discipline, teamwork, and dedication to challenge each student to achieve their highest potential as an individual and ensemble member. Therefore, students are expected to have a consistent level of commitment to their coachings and performances. If there is an ongoing problem with attendance or preparation, the student may be asked to withdraw from the program.
