The International Chamber Music Academy (ICMA) will make all arrangements for the accommodations and services furnished in direct connection with the program as described in the itinerary.  ICMA reserves the right to make changes in the itinerary with or without notice where deemed necessary.  ICMA also reserves the right to cancel the program prior to departure if the International Chamber Music Academy determines that circumstances require such cancellation, in which case full refunds of fees paid to the Festival will constitute full settlement with the enrollee.

No refund will be issued due to voluntary or negligent omission by the program enrollee for any of the services and accommodations described in the itinerary or for any unused portion of the program, unless agreed to in writing prior to departure. 

The International Chamber Music Academy and its directors, coordinators, and faculty will not be liable for any loss, damage, injury, delay, substitution of equipment, irregularity, or additional expense arising from the acts or omissions of any air carrier, hotel, travel agent, or ground carrier or due to strikes, war, civil disturbances, weather, acts of God, quarantines, sickness, government regulations or restrictions, or from any other cause. Baggage and instrument insurance is highly recommended.  By signing the application, the participant waives any such claim against the aforementioned agencies and persons and holds them harmless. 

The participant will be asked to stipulate that he/she is covered by a valid accident and health plan that covers medical and other health care expenses that might be incurred while the enrollee is out of the country of residence, or that the participant will obtain such insurance by the time of departure for the program.  Worldwide medical emergency assistance insurance is also recommended.  ICMA and its employees are not liable for any health or accident problems incurred by the participant in transit and during the festival, for difficulties arising from participants’ disabilities or special needs, and for the results of the participants’ actions.

ICMA is not associated with Illinois Wesleyan University.
