Third-party websites and services are governed by their own terms, privacy policies, accessibility practices, and security measures. EPA does not control and is not responsible for third-party content, availability, practices, statements, products, or services.

Information contained in official student education records may also be governed by separate Academy policies, enrollment documents, and applicable federal or state law.

EPA is committed to making its Website and digital content accessible to individuals with disabilities. Information about accessibility goals, assistance, and reporting barriers is available in the Academy’s Accessibility Statement.
Website Availability and Changes
EPA may modify, suspend, discontinue, remove, or restrict any Website content or feature at any time.
Although EPA seeks to provide accurate and current information, Website content may contain typographical errors, outdated information, broken links, technical issues, or inaccuracies. EPA does not guarantee that the Website will always be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or available.
Users should confirm important admissions, tuition, financial aid, visa, academic, athletic, event, and deadline information directly with the appropriate Academy office.
Disclaimer of Warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
EPA disclaims warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, availability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, noninfringement, and security.

Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, EPA and its trustees, directors, officers, employees, coaches, volunteers, agents, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from or relating to:

Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for claims, losses, or expenses resulting from your unlawful use of the Website, your material violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.
This provision does not require a user to indemnify EPA for EPA’s own unlawful conduct.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Any dispute relating specifically to the Website or these Terms that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Erie County, Pennsylvania, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
Separate enrollment, employment, athletic, housing, financial aid, vendor, or other agreements may contain different dispute-resolution provisions.
Changes to These Terms
EPA may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on the Website with a revised “Last Updated” date.
Continued use of the Website after an updated version becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by law.
Severability and No Waiver
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
EPA’s failure to enforce a provision does not waive its right to enforce that provision later.

Forms, Applications, and Submitted Information
The Website may allow users to submit admissions inquiries, contact requests, employment materials, donations, event registrations, or other information.
You agree that information you submit will be accurate, current, and complete. You are responsible for reviewing information before submitting it.
Do not submit Social Security numbers, passport details, banking information, medical records, passwords, or other highly sensitive information through a general Website contact form unless EPA specifically instructs you to use that form or provides a designated secure method.
Submitting an inquiry or application does not guarantee admission, enrollment, employment, financial assistance, housing, athletic placement, visa documentation, or any other outcome.
EPA may contact you using the information you provide to respond to your request and, where permitted, to provide information about Academy programs and opportunities.
Admissions, International Students, and Visa Information
Admissions, tuition, scholarship, financial aid, residence life, international enrollment, visa, SEVIS, and I-20 information published on the Website is general guidance and may change.
International students and families are responsible for complying with applicable immigration laws, embassy requirements, travel requirements, deadlines, and governmental instructions. EPA may provide administrative assistance but does not provide legal advice and does not control decisions made by the United States government, embassies, consulates, immigration authorities, airlines, or other third parties.
Visa issuance, entry into the United States, maintenance of immigration status, and related decisions remain subject to government approval and individual circumstances.
Athletics and Postsecondary Opportunities
Information about Academy athletics, coaches, facilities, schedules, recruitment, college exposure, athletic eligibility, collegiate placement, and professional pathways is provided for informational purposes.
Team participation, playing time, roster placement, competition schedules, athletic eligibility, college recruitment, scholarships, and placement opportunities depend on individual qualifications, academic standing, conduct, health and safety considerations, governing-body rules, coach decisions, and third-party decisions.
EPA does not guarantee that any student will receive a scholarship, college offer, professional opportunity, specific amount of playing time, or particular athletic result.
References to partner organizations, colleges, universities, athletic facilities, leagues, or governing bodies do not mean those organizations guarantee any specific student outcome.
Tuition, Fees, Financial Aid, and Donations
Tuition, fees, financial aid, scholarships, transportation charges, housing charges, and other amounts shown on the Website are subject to change and may be governed by separate written agreements.
A signed enrollment agreement, financial aid notice, invoice, payment plan, donation agreement, or other official Academy document controls over general Website information.
Donations are subject to applicable law and any written restrictions accepted by EPA. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances, and donors should consult their own tax advisers.
Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, the Website and its contents—including text, photographs, graphics, logos, designs, videos, audio, documents, software, page layouts, and other materials—are owned by or licensed to EPA and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
“Erie Preparatory Academy,” “Erie Prep,” EPA logos, program names, team names, slogans, and related branding may not be used without prior written authorization.
