Dear students, parents, teachers, and administrators,
Unfortunately, we have yet to receive all of our money back from all of our vendors. We are just as frustrated as you are at how long it has taken, and we hope to get your money back to you as soon as possible.
A registration fee of $40 and/or a conference fee of $65 was paid to the school, with a $10 early bird discount applied if paid before November. We will issue a refund of $45 for students who paid the early bird price and $55 to students who did not.
A virtual competition is scheduled to take place on May 28 and 29 for which details for registration have been sent out to teachers and chapter presidents. Students must qualify as a finalist in this event in order to compete in the virtual International Leadership Conference taking place June 24-27. More details on the vILC here: http://ilc.hosa.org/
As outlined in the terms and conditions agreed to upon registration, the registration fee is non-refundable. The fee is used for various costs which we cannot recover, including a per-member fee to US HOSA for each student registered, our learning management portal and app, as well as other operating expenses. HOSA students may access our online resources any time throughout the school year and gain eligibility to apply for various scholarships and workplace opportunities offered by US HOSA on a regular basis. We regret that we are unable to provide a full refund for the conference fee, as despite the nature of the situation, not all our vendors have agreed to refund us in full.
We apologize for the continued delay and appreciate your understanding.
Sincerely,
The HOSA Canada team
