PAYMENT POLICY
Our season runs from September through June, we combine the May & June tuition payments. They combined May & June tuition payment is due no later than May 15th.
Full Tuition is due every month regardless of attendance and /or holidays. Tuition for the year is divided into 10 equal installments. Payments do not vary due to holidays or the number of weeks in a month. Tuition is not prorated.
First month’s tuition is due at the time of registration.
Tuition can be paid through automatic withdrawal from your credit or debit card account. Automatic payments are taken on the 6th of each month. Tuition will be charged directly to your specified credit card. On Auto Pay we automatically withdrawal monthly tuition, costume deposits (10/1, 11/1, 1/15), and recital fee (5/15).
If you are on automatic payment with the studio and wish to change it to cash or check, you must give the studio written notification. Credit cards on file that are rejected will be charged a $5 service fee.
