There will be a $15 late fee which will be charged each month an account has an outstanding balance. This fee is applied on the 5^th of each month. The returned check or NSF fee is $25.  

Multiple Child Discount:

If more than one child from the same immediate family is enrolled in classes, there is a 10% monthly discount for all children in the family.

Pre-Payment Discount (Cash/Check only):

Pay your installment before the due date and receive a 5% discount.

Pay your tuition installments 4 months at a time and receive a 10% discount (deadlines are August 31st and January 31st).

Schedule of Payments:

Once enrolled during the session (School Year or Summer), enrollment is continuous unless a request to withdraw is processed. School year and Summer sessions must be enrolled in separately by the parent.

• School Year (September-June) payments are broken down into 8.5 installments (8 full installments and 1 half installment). Installments are due on the 1^st of the month and late on the 5^th.
• Summer Installment schedule depends on the program (weekly, Summer Intensive, or workshop). Summer tuition fee due dates will be outlined in specific program paperwork or fliers.

Tuition that has already been charged will not be reimbursed or credited, regardless of when you drop the class.

Withdrawal:

Until March, students may withdraw from classes provided 4-weeks written notice is given. Tuition will be prorated based on the final day of class, however, if any credit remains it will be forfeit. During the 2024/2025 school year we do not accept/process withdrawals after February 28, 2025.

Summer Program withdrawal policies are outlined on the various program information sheets.

Studio Roxander has a no refund policy. We do not prorate tuition for missed classes.

Placement & Promotions:​

Students are placed in our Toddler Program and Pre-School Program classes based on their age. Once the student has graduated from the Pre-School Program, advancement and promotions are based on many factors, with the primary one being the dancer’s understanding of and ability to perform the material in their current level safely and correctly. This, along with the student’s level of maturity and commitment, is considered above all other things. It is not unusual for a student to repeat a level of training. New students entering level 1B and above will need to take a placement class.

Commitment: 

Classical ballet training is a year-round commitment. School closures are scattered throughout the year at appropriate times (Spring, Pre-Summer, Post-Summer, Winter). Taking extensive time off over summer (or at other times)  can put the dancer at risk to fall behind their peers who choose to continue training, and that dancer may be held back in the fall regardless of where their peers are placed.
