Refund Policy
Family Weekend tickets are non-refundable. If your plans to attend change, please email [email protected] to let us know. In the event that Caltech must cancel Family Weekend events, the Institute will automatically refund all ticket holders in full. However, we are unable to refund families for any plane tickets, hotel bookings, or other costs associated with your Family Weekend attendance. Therefore, we strongly encourage families to book refundable tickets wherever possible.
