Tuition Policy

There will be absolutely NO REFUNDS of registration fees, tuition payments, costume payments, or recital fees - even if they are paid in advance!

All students are required to pay 2 months of tuition at the time of registration or before classes begin (this covers the tuition for your first and last month of classes).

Tuition payments are then due on the first scheduled class of each month.  It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to make payments to the front desk on time.  We DO NOT send out invoices unless the account is overdue!

Tuition payments are considered late after the 10th of the month, and a $10 late fee per family is automatically added to all accounts that carry a balance after the 10th each and every month.  THESE FEES WILL NOT BE WAIVED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!  If you do not regularly stop in the studio, we encourage you to mail in your tuition payments by the 1st of the month, or to call and make a credit card payment over the phone, to avoid the late fee.

Tuition has been divided equally over 10 months, September through June, plus recital rehearsals and performances.  Therefore, tuition fess remain the same every month!  Some months are longer and will make up for shorter months when holidays, breaks, and snow days happen.  There will be NO prorated tuition for missed class for any reason.

Make up lessons, however, are offered all year and we strongly encourage all students to make up their missed lessons.  This can be done in a class of the same level, or a lower level, at your earliest convience.

However, all classes taken must be age and level appropriate, and you must commit to attend the classes every week Also, participation in recital dances is up to the teacher’s discretion, and, therefore, you will not necessarily do a dance for every class you take. Cannot be used with any other discounts!

Full Year Payment Discount - Full year payments will receive a 5% discount if paid by cash or check by the end of September.  After September, there will be no discount for full year payments.  Also, please remember that tuition is NON REFUNDABLE!  If you pay for the full year up front and then decide to quit, you will not receive reimbursment of any kind!

Refund of Tuition/Registration Fees

There will be absolutely no refund of the registration fees paid Monthly tuition is also non-refundable. By paying first and last months’ tuition in advance, you are committing to dancing for at least two months. The Turning Pointe asks that you provide us with a 30 day, written notice before stopping your classes, ensuring that you have used your last month’s tuition in full.
