Fee and Registration Policies

  • Lessons may not begin until at least half the tuition due has been paid.  The second payment must be made by the specified due date or a late charge of $25 will be added.  This due date is usually 6-8 weeks into the semester. All class tuition (not private lessons) must be paid in full before the first class.

  • There is a $15 non-refundable registration fee for all new students.  Returning students do not need to pay the registration fee. Families who enroll more than one family member as new students, will only pay one $15 registration fee.

  • Students may register at any time during the semester. Tuition will be pro-rated for missed lessons due to mid-semester registration. Students may not be eligible for free group class participation with mid-semester registration but will be allowed to join the appropriate group class for the following semester.

  • Once you register for lessons, it is expected you will continue lessons for the entirety of that semester.  There are no refunds of CMS fees except in unusual and unavoidable circumstances.  Emergency refunds will be determined on an individual basis.

  • A family discount is offered for families with more than one child enrolled in private lessons.  The discount will be $20 off tuition per child = $40 off total tuition for 2 students or $60 off total tuition for 3 or more students.   The maximum family discount is $60 per family. Discounts do not apply towards any tuition other than private lesson tuition.

  • Partial scholarships are available on a limited basis for cases of exceptional need.  Please consult the director for more information.
