What is the cost per class? 

The fee for each class is $120.00, which includes all necessary materials. However, some courses may require additional equipment or items. Any added requirements will be clearly outlined in the course description.  

A $50.00 non-refundable deposit is due at the time of registration. The remaining balance must be paid in full by the specified date in order to maintain your registration. Failure to do so may result in cancellation of your spot in the session.  

What is the targeted age for the courses?  

Each of the courses is designed with an age group in mind. Learning activities are targeted for the age group indicated in the description.   

What does my child do for lunch if staying all day? 

Students registered for morning and afternoon sessions are eligible to stay for lunch (not provided). Herd U staff will bring students to the supervised eating space and back to AG Hill to rest and play before their next session. These students can bring a bag lunch or purchase from a vendor in the Memorial Union (e.g. pizza, sandwiches; approximately $8-12) 

See available food court options at NDSU Dining

Can parents/guardians visit the class?   

If you wish to visit a class, please contact the Herd U dtaff. If the class includes a presentation or display, Herd U staff will communicate the details.   

Parent Consent/General Liability agreement: 

The Waiver of Liability must be completed upon registration for Herd U courses. This waiver gives the permission for your child to receive medical treatment in the event of an injury, accident, or illness while attending Herd U.  In addition, included is a waiver for consent to utilize pictures or recordings for the sole purpose of marketing and advertising Herd U.  

What do I do if my child is absent from a class or must leave early? 

If your child needs to miss or leave class early, please notify the Herd U staff prior to the class. Refunds will not be given for missed days or conflicts with your registered session.  

How do I know when sessions are full? 

Our registration system will show whether a session is full and won’t let you register.   

When will I receive confirmation about my student’s registration?  

After you have completed payment, you will receive a confirmation email.  Herd U staff will send all the information for the class your student is registered for, including drop-off and pick-up details and any special instructions.   

What is the cancellation policy?

Student registration fees are required to offset the costs of providing a course. Herd U reserves the right to cancel a course if a minimum student enrollment number is not met.  If we cancel a course, participants will receive a full refund.  We will work with families to find another class in the event of cancellation. 

What is the refund policy?

To be considered for a refund (minus the $50.00 deposit), requests must come at least 7 days prior to the start of the program. 

All refund requests should be sent to ndsu.herdu@ndsu.edu   

No refunds or credit will be given once a course begins.  This includes missed days/classes.   

For all cancellation/refund questions, contact the Herd U office by email ndsu.herdu@ndsu.edu or by calling 701-231-4299 or 701-231-7015
