2008-2009 CARE PROGRAM POLICIES
1. TUITION: Tuition per non-dance class is $200 plus a $20 non-refundable registration fee per child (not per class). In addition, the MATERIALS FEES are non-refundable once classes have begun (no exceptions). Registration Fees and Materials fees must be paid in full at registration.
2. PAYMENT OPTION: Tuition is $200 per non-dance class; $225 per dance class. There will no longer be an option of a discounted tuition payment plan. There is available, however, an installment payment plan for which tuition of $200 or $225 may be paid in two installments. This installment plan is only available for any registrations made on the public registration nights in June. The installment plan requires a first payment per non-dance class of $100 or dance class of $125 plus registration fee and any applicable material fees at the time of registration. The second payment of $100 per class will be due by September 15th. If you do not pay the second installment by September 29th and do not request a written refund by this date, your child will lose their space in the class that he/she is registered for and lose the initial $100 or $125 first payment. Your child’s space will be offered to the next child on the waitlist for that particular class. Please keep in mind that CARE will make every effort to make reminder phone calls if they do not receive payment by September 15th for you registered. We will keep accurate records of the date and time that the reminder telephone call was made to notify you that your 2nd installment payment is past due and remind you of our payment policy and/or refund policy if we do not receive payment in a timely fashion. If entering class after October, tuition will be pro-rated on the full tuition of $200 per non-dance class or $225 per dance class based on number of classes missed in accordance with the CARE Calendar.
3. WITHDRAWALS & REFUNDS: Pro-rated refunds of class tuition only will be given if a student withdraws on or before November 1st.
