Tuition Policies

School Calendar: Please refer to our school calendar for our dates of operation.  

**All registrations are for the length of the semester (Semester 1 runs September through January; Semester 2 runs January through June).

Payment Options: We provide convenient payment via credit card in our online registration system.  If you choose to pay via check, please email info@saratogacityballet.com after registration to indicate this preference.

Families may choose to pay for the whole year in advance (discounts available) or be billed quarterly. Quarterly billing occurs approximately every 9 weeks. All classes must be paid prior to the start of a session.

Discounts Available: Discounts are provided for those families who choose to pay for the whole year in advance as well as those families taking 5 or more classes.  Please refer to the Tuition page for details.

Missed Classes: Credits and refunds are not provided for lessons that are missed or canceled due to weather. We provide the opportunity to take a makeup class in a class at your level or one level lower.  Please contact siobhan@saratogacityballet.com for exceptions.  Also please contact the teacher of the class that your dancer will be joining so they are aware of the additional student.

Withdrawal from Classes: Registration for a class commits your dancer to that class for the semester as it retains a space in the class.  Notifications of withdrawal should be sent to info@saratogacityballet.com at least 10 days prior to the start of the next semester.  

Summer Programming:  Tuition for summer programs will be paid at the time of registration.  Refund of tuition can only be provided with withdrawals completed 30 days prior to the start of the program.  All registration fees are nonrefundable.  All requests must be emailed to info@saratogacityballet.com

Minimal Enrollment: All classes and summer programs have a minimal enrollment in order to provide the best experience for our dancers. We may cancel a program or class should we not have enough dancers enrolled. In this instance, families will be notified and refunded.
