Class Withdrawal and Refund Policy:
Early withdrawal from a class before the completion of the class requires a written notification with a signed withdrawal form to Mosaic Dance Center 30 days prior to withdrawal and the student is responsible for the last 30 days tuition whether the student attends or not. No refunds or credits will be issued for missed classes or early departure from a class. Mosaic Dance Center has the right to dismiss a student without refund. Tuition for the 30 days is still due until the drop period has ended. Class withdrawal requires a minimum of one FULL month advance notice.
Notice MUST be given by completed withdrawal form available in the studio. Email, phone, and verbal communications are not official withdrawals. Monthly billing will continue until an official withdrawal form is received as per the policies agreed on upon submitting registration waivers and contract, regardless of whether the student is in attendance or not. Delinquent accounts will be sent for collections.

Season 2024-2025 (36-week program)
Tuition:
Tuition is paid each month (August – May) unless a drop form is signed 30 days in advance. Our program is based on a 36-week program, which is divided equally into 9 monthly payments. For example, if your child takes one-hour class per week the total for the yearly program is $612, which can be paid in full or monthly at $68 per month. In addition, tuition rates do not change due to absence or studio closing for holidays or inclement weather. The tuition rate will remain the same each month considering some months have 3 classes and some have 5 (the months even out at the end of the year).
A $25.00 fee will be charged for each "NSF" draft. If the studio is presented more than two NSF drafts, students will not be permitted to attend classes until the account is current.
Delinquent accounts will be turned over to an outside collection agency if the account holder fails to make satisfactory payment arrangements. An account is considered delinquent once it is 6 weeks past due. No student will be allowed to continue classes if the account is 3 weeks past due.
NO FEES ARE REFUNDABLE. All tuition is non-refundable or non-transferable. We only allow make-up classes for sickness or studio closing and must be approved by the Mosaic office if a student can be placed in a make-up only class. This includes anything payable to Mosaic Dance Center, such as and not limited to registration fees, tuition, costumes, programs, videos, tickets, t-shirts, convention and competition fees, choreography fees, master classes, all deposits, etc. Refunds are not given for closure due to natural disasters, pandemics, or federal, state or local government mandates.
Monthly Payments:
Payments are due by the 5th of each month or by the first day of the session. Payment choices are cash, check, or credit card. A $10 late fee will be added to your account if not by the 15th of the month. In addition, $10 late fee will be charged for each week following that the balance is not paid. Please remember that all children’s classes have a dress code and shoe requirements. These requirements are located on this web site under class description.
