Studio Policies & Payment Procedures

Tuition is based on the number of hours the student is enrolled in at the beginning of the month, not the student’s attendance throughout the month. All payments are due by the 25th for the upcoming month. For example: October tuition is billed and due on September 25th. Any payment not received by the end of the 2nd week of classes for the month will incur a 20% late fee.

There are no refunds on any payments made to Studio 413, including but not limited to, classes, competitions, shows, costumes fees, convention fees, etc. Class payment fees will not be prorated if your child misses a class for any reason. If a dancer misses class it is their responsibility to see their teacher in order to make up the class within that month.

Anyone who has an outstanding balance at the end of the month (i.e. monthly class fee, competition fee, costume fee, show fees, etc.) will not be allowed to participate in dance class until the balance has been paid in full.

A family discount is offered to anyone who has 2 or more dancers in its immediate family. To find the total cost for a family, separately find each dancer’s class cost under “Pricing” (based on the number of total classes) and add each of those costs together, then take 10% off of that total.

Cash, Checks, Visa/MasterCard/Discover, money order or cashiers check are all acceptable forms of payment. All checks should be made out to Studio 413. You can place payments in the payment drop box in the lobby. You can also make payments online at our Studio Director site. You can make recurring payments as well. A returned check fee of $20.00 will be charged on all returned checks. If a check is returned the only acceptable form of payment at that time will be Visa/MasterCard/Discover, money order or cashiers check.

If you drop a class for any reason you must provide 30 days notice by email or letter; otherwise you will be charged $20.00.

If you refer a student to Studio 413 and they register by the end of the month you will receive 10% off of one month’s tuition. This can only be applied once a year.
