Tuition
Academic Year 2018-19
Tuition for Charlottesville Ballet Academy classes is paid monthly. Tuition is calculated based on the length of each class (see table below) and students pay listed tuition for each enrolled class.
•CBA Offers Two Types of Tuition Discounts:
1) For CBA students taking multiple classes, each additional class is 10% off
2) For families with multiple CBA students, each additional family member receives 10% off the tuition of his or her class (of equal or lesser value)
*Registration is half-off for each additional enrolled family member
CBA Policies for the Academic Year:
• For your convenience, CBA uses monthly billing that automatically drafts from your credit card on file. A credit card is required upon registering; the first month’s tuition will be charged at the time of enrollment. There is also a registration fee of $20 billed upon enrollment (charged once per academic year).
• Tuition is charged automatically on the 15th of every month (except December) for the following month’s tuition. November payments will be applied to January tuition.
- Please note that you will NOT receive an invoice each month.
- The credit card on file will be charged if another form of payment (cash, check, or alternate credit card) is not received by the tuition due date.
- Any declined cards will carry a fee of $10 and any returned checks will carry a fee of $25.00.
• All students register for the full academic year at CBA (September 2018-May 2019). Notice of dropping a class must be e-mailed to [email protected] by the 15th of the month or the card on file will be charged without refund.
• A costume rental fee of $35 will be assessed for each performing class for Children’s Division and up (due November 1, 2018).
• A Spring Performance Fee of $50 per student ($25 per sibling) will be assessed for each student at CBA that participates in the Spring Performance (due March 1, 2019). Tickets will be FREE for the performances held in June.
