- 10 Month Installment Plan: paid by cash, check or credit card. Your first payment will include the registration fee plus the first and last month’s installment. This is due at the time of registration. The 10-month installment plan is the cost for the year broken down over 10 months. Tuition is a yearly charge running throughout the dance year broken into 10 payments for your convenience. Payments run September-June and are due on the 1st of the month. **If paying by credit card, your first payment will show as 2 separate charges on your statement, Charge 1 – Registration Fee & 1st Installment and Charge 2- 2nd Installment. Returned check fee and/or declined credit card fee is $35.

If you choose the installment plan and/or you register online, a credit card will be required to remain on account. Credit card information is stored in a secure database in which only the last four digits and expiration date are visible. You will have the option to have your card charged automatically every month. Credit card payments are for tuition charges only and will not be accepted for costumes or any other recital expense. If for any reason your card is declined, you will receive notification to update your card through our online system. Paying the installments does not entitle you to drop at anytime; you are still responsible for the year after the withdrawal deadline. Students not participating in the recital are responsible for all 10 installments.

If you do not choose the auto charge option, payment is due on the 1st of the month. If payment is not received by the 5th of the month, a $10 late fee will be applied to your account and your credit card will be automatically charged. Payments submitted via online bill pay or postal mail will also be subject to the $10 late fee if received after the 5th. Accounts 60 days past due will result in non-admittance into class. NO EXCEPTIONS!

In order to receive the pro-rated refund, a letter in writing or via email must be received by October 15th. No refunds will be issued after the October 15th cut off or without a letter in writing or via email. Late registrations have 4 weeks from registration date to drop a class for a pro-rated refund.

There will be no refunds for classes missed, unless injury/sickness occurs in which the student is totally incapable of returning to class, a doctor’s note is required.
