Tuition policies for private lessons
Flat rate Monthly tuition is $180.00/30 minutes and $360.00/60 minutes, $540.00 for 90 minutes and $720.00 for two full hours (usually families with multiple students). Monthly tuition averages 4 weeks and is accepted in monthly installments only (no partial payments) by cash, check, money order, ATM/debit card, or credit card and must be paid in full by the first scheduled lesson of each month. Partial payments will not be accepted. Tuition is due on the first lesson of every month or the 8th of every month, whichever date comes first (i.e. first lesson is December 10th, tuition is still due by December 8th). A $25 late fee will be assessed for tuition received after the 8th of the current month and a $35 fee for all returned checks to cover returned check bank fee. Tuition is non-refundable and non-transferable. No partial payments will be accepted, nor lesson credits will be carried over to the next month. A 48 hour advance notice with a valid reason such as illness, family emergency, religious/national holiday, etc must be communicated directly to your teacher in order to receive a make-up lesson. One per month excused absence must be made up within 2 (two) weeks of the cancelled lesson. Lessons cancelled the day of the lesson (within 24 hours prior) will be forfeited. No refunds will be issued for absences; however a credit will be issued a teacher absence. Teachers reserve the right to refuse make-up lessons for students with excessive absences (i.e. 3 lessons are cancelled in a 4 week period). A one (1) month written notice is required to discontinue lessons (i.e. hand written, text message) and tuition must be paid through that 30 day period. In accordance to Georgia law regarding verbal agreements (which require no client signature), clients who refuse to pay tuition on time and/or refuse to pay the disconnection fee may be subject to a collections agency. (This policy is the standard for all music and non-music businesses in Alpharetta and Fulton County.) Please print and keep for your records.
