In-Step Dance Center 2025–2026 Tuition Installment Agreement
By enrolling at In-Step Dance Center (ISDC), I acknowledge and agree to the following policies regarding tuition, fees, and payment obligations:
Tuition Structure & Payment
I understand that tuition is paid in monthly installments, and each installment is the same amount regardless of the number of weeks in the month or student absences. Tuition is not based on the number of classes per month, but rather on the full August–June 2025–2026 season, which includes a minimum of 36–38 lessons.
I understand that monthly tuition is due on the 1st of each month and will be charged via autopay using a valid credit/debit card on file.
A $20 late fee will be added if tuition is not paid by the 5th of the month. An additional $5 per day late fee will be added starting the 15th of the month until the balance is paid in full.
A $20 Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) fee will automatically apply to all declined transactions.
I understand that summer/winter camps, workshops, and private lessons require separate registration fees and tuition and are not included in the standard tuition chart.
Registration & First/Last Payments
At the time of registration, I agree to pay the registration fee and first and last month's tuition installment for the season.
I understand that if I register after August, I will be required to pay a "Recital Catch-Up Fee" to cover items included in the All-Inclusive Recital Tuition Package.
August & June Tuition
I understand that:
August tuition is due in full regardless of the start date, as it covers annual administrative costs and reserves my dancer's space for the full season.
June tuition is prorated to reflect the final lessons and recital week. This amount must be paid prior to recital, and participation in the recital is dependent on the account being paid in full.
All-Inclusive Recital Class Tuition
If I enroll in a Recital Class, I understand that the monthly tuition includes all associated recital fees. ISDC will not charge additional recital costs beyond what is included in my tuition.
The All-Inclusive Recital Package includes:
(1) recital costume
(2) a custom recital t-shirt
(3) a digital recital program
(4) an end-of-season celebration (VIP Day)
(5) a participation award
(6) two (2) complimentary recital tickets per family (ticket service fees not included)
Withdrawals & Refund Policy
To withdraw from a class, I must notify Miss Dana Loving-Sparks in writing via email to instepdancecenter.tx@gmail.com or in person, and submit a signed Withdrawal Form by the 15th of the month to avoid charges for the next month's tuition.
I understand that withdrawals are not permitted after April 1st of the season.
I understand that all tuition, fees, and payments (including registration and camp fees) are non-refundable under any circumstances.
Acknowledgement & Agreement
By checking the “I Accept” checkbox, I agree to the terms outlined above and understand my financial responsibilities to In-Step Dance Center for the 2025–2026 season.
