REGISTRATION FEE: A non-refundable registration fee of $40.00 for the first dancer and $20.00 for each additional dancer in the same family is due upon registration. Registration for the Fall/Spring season is valid mid-August to mid-May.

TUITION: Upon enrollment, you are registering for our whole season which ends mid-May. If you need to drop a class prior to that, please see below: DROP A CLASS. The full season tuition is based upon 36 weeks of classes and may be broken into 10 equal monthly installments. Tuition is non-refundable and non-transferable. Tuition is not prorated for partial attendance or missed classes. Full tuition is due regardless of attendance and/or holidays. Tuition for the year is divided into equal installments. Payments do not vary due to holidays or the number of weeks in a month. Tuition will NOT be prorated. Returned checks for insufficient funds will incur a $35.00 fee.

MONTHLY INSTALLMENTS: If paying by installment, tuition is due on or before the first lesson of each month. Tuition may be paid by cash, check, ACH, credit or debit card. Auto pay may also be set up through the Parent Portal on Dance Studio Pro. Some classes require more than one class per week and student placement in those classes may be only with teacher approval. Returned checks for insufficient funds will incur a $35.00 fee.

FULL SEASON PAYMENT: If full season is paid on or before the first lesson of the season, a 10% discount will be applied. If a 2 installment payment plan is chosen, 1st payment in September and 2nd payment in February, there will be a 5% discount. The paid in full and two installment payment options must be paid with cash or check ONLY! Returned checks for insufficient funds will incur a $35.00 fee.

REFERRAL CREDIT: For each student who registers for classes, current active students will receive a $20 account credit!

DISCOUNTS: A family tuition discount of 10% is applied for families with more than one dancer.

END OF SEASON DANCE SHOWCASE: Our annual dance recital is TENTATIVELY set for the weekend of May 16-17th, with a dress rehearsal on a day prior (MAY 15TH) location TBD. Your inclusive tuition rates includes the cost of your costumes and the showcase participation fee. Costumes will only be distributed to those dancers whose account is current. We do not sell tickets to our recitals so as many family and friends that wish to attend may do so.

LATE FEES: A $35.00 late fee will automatically be added to the tuition amount of those accounts where tuition is received after the 10th of the month.

REFUND POLICY: All registration fees and tuition are non-refundable and non-transferable once they have been paid to MK Dance Academy. We do not offer credit for missed classes. There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this policy. MK Dance Academy does offer make ups for missed days, but only until such time that recital routines are being learned, which is around March 1.

DROP A CLASS: Written notice of intent to drop a class must be provided by the 5th day of the month preceding the month you wish to stop taking a class. Any classes dropped after the 5th of the preceding month will be charged tuition for the next month.

WITHDRAWAL: If a student chooses to discontinue dance classes during the Fall/Spring term, a parent or guardian must visit the dance studio to complete and sign a withdrawal form. Withdrawals may not be given verbally. There are no refunds given for students that discontinue taking lessons at any time during the term. Recital costumes are NOT returnable and therefore not refundable. If you order and pay for a costume but do not continue in dance, you are entitled to your costume.

MAKEUP A CLASS: Makeup classes are available to students who miss class due to injury/illness. Missed classes will not result in prorated tuition or refund. Make up classes must occur within 30 days. Let us know if you need help finding a makeup class.
