Sonlight Returns
We want to make sure you get what is right for you and your family. Returning items that don't work for your family should be easy and stress-free. That's why we've made it easy to return items and take advantage of Sonlight's unmatched one-year money back guarantee.
Buy any complete Sonlight History / Bible / Literature program or All-Subjects Package, and the Love to Learn, Love to Teach™ Guarantee is yours. Or create your own complete program by combining any History / Bible / Literature with any math, language arts, and science programs (one each per History / Bible / Literature), on one order… you’re still covered.
Take up to one year to actually use the first half (18 weeks) of your eligible program(s). Then if you don’t love it ... if you aren’t convinced Sonlight makes homeschooling a pleasure for you and your kids, please return your program—the entire package, used books and all. We’ll give you a full refund of your purchase price.
This unmatched one-year Love to Learn, Love to Teach™ Guarantee includes the following provisions:
- One year from date of purchase
- Does not include shipping
- Materials scheduled after Week 18 must be unused & resalable (as explained in the 6-Month Return Policy)
