A class/tuition confirmation will be provided after your registration has been processed. Please note that final class determinations are made after the first few weeks of classes. Tuition cost may change depending on the final placement of the student.

Tuition Payments

Monthly Tuition payments are due at the 1st class of each month beginning September through June – (10 installments). A $5 late fee will be assessed to accounts who pay after the 10th of each month.

The tuition fee is based on the dance year. Tuition payments are due as noted regardless of the number of classes in that particular month or semi-annual period. Tuition is not refundable when a student withdraws in the middle of a month. Please speak with the Director if a student will not be continuing lessons for any reason. Tuition is not deducted or refunded due to missed classes, vacations, school musicals, and sports seasons. Tuition checks should be made payable to Pointe By Pointe, Inc. A return check charge fee of $15 will be assessed for any checks that are returned. If you are paying in cash, please seal money in an envelope with the student's name indicated on the front.

A discount of 5% is available for students and families who pay for the full year in two payments. The first payment is due at the first class in September and the second payment is due at the first class in January.
