General Terms

The Salzburg International Summer Academy of Fine Arts (hereafter SAFA) is an organisation under the auspices of the Province of Salzburg. The SAFA is open to anyone interested in art, irrespective of age, nationality, training or cultural background. Applicants must be at least 16 years of age.

Participation fee
The participation fee comprises an enrolment charge of € 100.– (non-refundable) and the course fee, the amount of which depends on the duration of the course. University and college students are entitled to reduced fees on presentation of a valid confirmation of enrolment for the 2023 summer semester.
The fee covers the cost of participation in a course with instruction by a qualified artist, curator or art critic, use of studio and equipment during class hours, and attendance at various events organised by the Summer Academy. It does not cover the cost of necessary materials or excursions.  
Courses may be booked only for their full duration.

Cancellation
Once acceptance for a course has been confirmed, the non-refundable enrolment charge of € 100.– is due immediately. The course fee must be paid by 30 June 2023. If cancellation takes place after 30 June, a refund of the course fee is possible only in cases of proven "force majeure" (illness, accident, death in family, matters related to the Covid-19 pandemic). Other reasons (dissatisfaction, programme changes) do not entitle students to a refund. In cases of "force majeure," cancellation should be made immediately, with written proof of the reasons for cancellation, otherwise the full tuition fee must be paid. Cancellation is not possible after a course has begun. 

In case of cancellation at short notice or premature departure, if no substitute is available, a cancellation fee of € 100.– will be charged.
