Tuition

• Single student per household: $280 ($20/class) + $30 administrative fee per student (not per offering, in the event of participation in more than one).
• Multiple students in the same household: $280 per student ($20/class) + $50 administration fee per family (not per student).
  • Payable only once, regardless of the number of classes taken.

The administrative fee will be a separate product when you pay online with a credit card. Place both your selected product(s) and the administrative fee into your cart to check out. 

What is the administrative fee? 
Administrative fees cover the cost of administration, registration, instructor background checks, recital costs, etc. Charging this fee, including the discounted version for families with multiple students enrolled, allows us to set the per class fee at a competitive market rate.
