Monthly Installment Payment Plan
Families may choose to pay tuition through our monthly installment payment plan. Students enrolled at the beginning of the academic year will have their annual tuition divided into 9 monthly installments from September through May.
For students who enroll after the academic year has begun, tuition will be prorated based on the remaining lessons in the program. The remaining tuition balance will then be divided equally among the remaining monthly installments through May.
For example, if a student begins in November, the prorated tuition will be divided into 7 monthly installments (November–May). Students enrolling later in the year will follow the same structure. Therefore, the number and amount of monthly installments may vary depending on the student’s enrollment date, lesson schedule, and remaining tuition balance.
Installment Plan Fee
Effective September 1, 2026, a one-time $60 Installment Plan Fee will apply to:
- New students who enroll after September 1 and choose the monthly installment payment option; or
- Current students who previously selected the full-year payment option and request to switch to monthly installments after September 1.
This fee helps offset the additional processing and administrative costs associated with managing monthly installment payments.
Families who re-enrolled and registered in the program and selected the monthly installment plan on or before September 1, 2026 will not be charged this fee.
The $60 Installment Plan Fee is charged once per student for the academic year, is separate from tuition, and is non-refundable.
