Copy of Registration Form and Policies

Enrollment and Tuition Payments:   Since our School Year runs YEAR-ROUND, you will not have to pay registration fee annually unless you withdraw and enroll at a later time.  With several months that offer 5 weeks during the year, tuition payments remain the same each month regardless of attendance, school closures, or holidays.  It will be charged to student accounts, and processed electronically, on the 1^st of each month.  (You may pay by check or cash before the 1^st).  If a change needs to be made to the billing date, there will be a $5 monthly service charge added to your tuition.  Payments that don’t process on the 1^st or checks returned from the bank as NSF, will inquire a $25 late/nsf fee and the debt must be cleared within 10 business days in order to continue dancing.  Withdrawal letters will be sent home with students, if payment is not received.  We accept cash, checks, credit cards or online payments. Students may be suspended from class until balance is paid current.  Refund Policy:  Once you have attended your first class with us, no refunds, credits or transfers to other students will be issued. This also includes any registration fee, showcase fee and any merchandise orders.             (initial)
