No-show and late cancel fees
4 minUpdated August 2026For school owners, students, parents
What you'll do
You will set or read the cancellation cutoff, see what a late cancel does, and how a no-show fee posts to the student balance.
Know the cutoff
Schools set how close to a lesson a student can cancel without a fee. Canceling before that window reopens the slot for someone else.
Late cancel
After the cutoff, the school’s late policy applies automatically. The fee posts to the balance.
No-show
If the student does not attend, the no-show fee posts the same way. Reminders exist so this happens less.
