(Note: These policies apply to all programs with the exception of our Suzuki Violin Program.)
Monthly Automatic Payments: When you register initially for the month to month, the Academy sets up an automatic withdrawal from your credit card on the first of each month. The monthly tuition amount is the same each month. It reflects the average number of teaching weeks per month overall. The Academy does not alter monthly tuition due to differing number of weeks.
Withdrawal and Stop Autopay: There are no long term or semester contracts. You may withdraw whenever you choose. However, no partial month refund or adjustments will be issued. To withdraw from classes or lessons:
First Payment and Ongoing:
Confirmation:
Declined Card Fee: We allow one declined card transaction. With subsequent declined card transactions, a $30 declined card fee will be charged automatically. Thank you for keeping your card up to date.
Withdraw and Restart: If a withdrawal notice is received (see above), the student is able to attend any and all lessons/classes up to the end of the last paid month. Beginning the next week, that slot is considered available to other students. Unfortunately, we cannot hold an unpaid slot.
To restart lessons/classes, students will need to re-register.
Summer Vacation and Monthly Autopay: Your lessons or classes are ongoing through the year, except for the closed dates outlined on our website. However, to accommodate planned Summer vacations between July 1 and August 31, with notice, we will refund up to two classes/lessons missed due to planned vacations.
