SCIVIS Creed

"We are all here to learn with our peers. Let us celebrate our similarities and our differences. Let us respect other cultures, religions, and languages. At our beginning, many were given little chance but due to the people in our lives, we find ourselves in a wonderful place with wonderful people. Let us flourish in our learning, find joy in our experiences and remember our friends and knowledge we gained at Space Camp." -- Dan Oates

!! CREDIT CARDS NOW ACCEPTED FOR SCIVIS PAYMENTS

Credit cards can now be accepted for payment for most SCIVIS fees.  As this isn’t a profit-making venture, there will be fees attached to all credit card payments.  We will be using a Square device to accept credit cards.  Square charges a fee of 3.75% for credit cards not present, in other words, cards taken over the phone. 

I will not accept credit card payment for cards from institution or school districts that will have Tax Form 1099 accompanying payment.  Those payments must be sent by check to the USSRC Education Foundation, Inc.  Please contact me for more information.

All credit card payments will be charged the 3.75% fee.  If the card is present at the time of the transaction, i.e. day of camp, there will be an approximate discount of 1%.  All of the fees are preset on my Square device.

Rounded off transaction fees are added to each of the above items and discounted for card present transactions.
