Tuition & Registration

TUITION & REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Classes run continuously from September through June (with the exception of spring and winter breaks) unless designated otherwise. Tuition is based on a 38 week school year and is invoiced in 4 installments or sessions. Each session represents one quarter of the school year and is not considered an individual course (each session does not always equal 10 classes). Tuition is based on the number of class hours a student takes  per week.  Please inquire with our staff for a copy of the tuition chart.  The figures on the tuition chart are for one session of classes.  A full year tuition would be paid 4 times from Sept to June based on the below dates for the 2023-2024 Season:

Session 1:  September 5th to November 5th

Session 2:  November 6th to January 28th (includes a 2 week winter break)

Session 3:  January 29th to April 7th (includes a 1 week spring break)

Session 4:  April 8th to June 9th

Wayne Ballet uses an online system for registration, class selection, and tuition payments called the Parent Portal. You can access the Portal here:  

 Parent Portal (or download the DSP Portal app for a more mobile-friendly experience)!

A Registration Fee of $35 per student or $50 per family (two or more students) is applicable to each season and is due at the time of enrollment in addition to tuition. We accept registrations throughout the year for most classes, so it is possible to enroll at any time throughout the year and tuition can be pro-rated accordingly (however students who enroll during the fourth session may not have the privilege of participating in the year-end showcase if choreography has already begun).  We recommend registering in advance before joining the Pre School and Primary level classes, as they tend to fill up quickly.  Students must be fully potty-trained in order to begin Pre School classes at Wayne Ballet.

Tuition is due 2 weeks prior to the start of the new session.  You will receive an email with the invoice and due date for each session. Tuition is due regardless of whether you have received an invoice so please remember to check the website calendar and bulletin board for due dates.  When you enroll in AutoPay through the Parent Portal we will automatically bill your credit card when the next session payment is due.  Wayne Ballet’s primary means of communication is through email so be sure to provide your current email when completing registration and be sure to add wayneballet@gmail.com to your safe senders list.  Once a student is enrolled for the Sept to June season,Wayne Ballet will continue to bill each session the same as the previous, unless notified otherwise! Please note that it is your responsibility to notify Wayne Ballet if you choose to drop a class or your card will be charged. Bi-weekly late fees of $25 will continue to accrue until your account balance is paid.  Please be sure to update your AutoPay account if you receive a new card. 

*Due to new policies surrounding covid-19 our registration process will now require you enroll in AutoPay.  We will not be accepting payments in person or by mail until further notice.

Tuition payments are non-refundable and non-transferable. However, we do have a flexible policy for the youngest students who are eager to dance but who may not be quite ready for a class environment.  If this is the case we will apply the balance to a future session up to one year from initial date of registration. Sometimes just a few months can make a big difference.

Monthly payment plans are available under certain circumstances. Please contact our office for more information. In the case of monthly payment plans tuition is calculated using the same scale and cannot be pro-rated once a session has begun.

Private or semi-private classes in all disciplines are available in certain circumstances. Please call the studio at (610) 688 3904 for information and prices.

Summer Session is separate from our regular yearly tuition and prices may be different. A separate registration fee will apply for summer sessions, workshops, and intensives.

CLASS CANCELLATIONS/SCHEDULE CHANGES

Our schedule is always subject to change, based on enrollment demands. If the class you have selected is closed or cancelled, we will contact you as soon as possible to help find an alternative that works for you.  Please note: your class selections are not guaranteed until payment is received.
