Cancellation Policy

Review the Mouse Biology Program’s cancellation policy to understand the guidelines and procedures for modifying or canceling services, ensuring transparency and effective planning for your research needs.


We understand that research needs can change unexpectedly, and adjustments to orders or services are sometimes necessary. Our cancellation policy aims to provide flexibility while ensuring responsible management of resources, staffing, and animal welfare.

General Cancellation Policy

Mouse Orders

Mouse orders must be canceled seven business days before the scheduled shipment date. This notice allows us to adjust without impacting animal welfare or resource scheduling.

  • Full Refund: Cancellations made seven or more business days in advance will receive a full refund, excluding non-refundable fees (e.g., genotyping, custom breeding, or health testing).
  • Partial Refund: Cancellations made less than seven business days before shipment may be eligible for a partial refund, depending on preparation status and resources already committed.
  • No Refund: Cancellations made within 24 hours of shipment will not be eligible for a refund, as animals will have been prepared for transport and associated costs incurred.

How to Cancel an Order or Service

To cancel an order or service, please get in touch with our team by phone or email with your order details, service information, and reason for cancellation. We will confirm the cancellation, process any eligible refunds, and adjust timelines.

Important Considerations

  • Non-Refundable Fees: Some services have non-refundable fees (e.g., genotyping, health testing, custom breeding), which will be communicated during the service agreement.
  • Particular Circumstances: We recognize that unforeseen events can impact research plans. If you urgently need to cancel outside of standard policy, please reach out to discuss potential accommodations.
