No tuition refunds will be issued after September 7th. If at any time you wish to discontinue, we ask that you finish out the quarter or non-recital 8 week session then you will not be obligated to continue once the quarter/session has ended.
In the event of a government shutdown or studio closure, all classes will transition to virtual instruction.
If after two weeks of virtual instruction, we are still on the Virtual Plan. Families who choose to not participate in virtual learning after two weeks, may freeze their account and receive a credit for the balance of the current quarter to use toward future classes. Credits will not be given before the built-in two weeks of virtual learning via the Virtual Plan. Refunds for tuition will not be issued after September 1st even under the Virtual Plan.
CREDIT CARDS WILL BE CHARGED WITHIN 7-10 BUSINESS DAYS OF REGISTERING.
TUITION AND COSTUME PAYMENTS WILL BE TAKEN OUT AUTOMATICALLY. Costume Payments will be taken out automatically between 11/15/20- 11/20/20. No costume refunds after 11/30/2020.
We, at Mulford Dance Studio, never see your information nor do we store it.
We use a credit card processor that has a secure system.
STUDENTS MUST BE REGISTERED BEFORE STARTING CLASS.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ONLINE REGISTERING: This online account system does not make adjustments for tuition discounts or family registration fee discounts, nor does it automatically apply gym insurance fees. Therefore, we must manually make the adjustments to apply the discounts. Once these adjustments are made, you card will be charged.
