POLICY INFORMATION

 

ABSENCE POLICY

Only legitimate absences due to serious illness, family emergencies, or similar serious reasons can be made up.  Choosing to miss a class for personal reasons not related to serious issues are not legitimate absences, and the Academy is not obligated to offer make-up classes. We provide the classroom and the teacher on the officially posted class dates, and have to pay expenses accordingly, whether a student shows up or not. Casual absences without legitimate reason can not be made up. If a class is postponed or cancelled on our end (teacher absence, emergency, scheduling problem), we will make up the class at a set date as soon as we can, usually added to the end of the current term.

 

MATERIALS FEES

Most classes have supplies and materials that the student will need to provide.  These can vary from a few dollars for some of the foundation art classes, to hundreds of dollars for the advanced monster makeup/SFX classes.  See class descriptions for more details.

 

LATE ENROLLMENT

Students may enroll in classes after the first week for an adjusted amount.

 

SUBSTITUTION POLICY

We reserve the right to provide qualified substitutes for our instructors in the event of professional or personal changes to the schedule. This has not happened yet, and is unlikely to happen.

 

RETURNED CHECK POLICY

A $30 fee will be charged for all returned checks.

 

TUITION REFUNDS

We are a small community Academy, and excessive refunds can damage our ability to offer classes, so please only request refunds if it is absolutely necessary. We will gladly offer class credits or transfers if events cause you to have to miss a class, and we will issue refunds if that is the only option. However, in the processing of enrollments, our credit card processing and online enrollment processing services take a percentage of all sales that pass through them, so we do not receive the full amount that a student pays. Because of this, we may not be able to offer a full refund in some situations.

 

Also, due to the small size of our classes, and a minimum number of students needed by some teachers to run their classes, we must be informed at least two weeks prior to the first class if you seek a full (or 90%) tuition refund.  After that time, money has gone into the class, teacher, supplies classroom costs, and general overhead.  Any Application Fees and Registration Fees are not refundable. See below for refund amounts based on timeliness:

 

Less than 2 weeks prior to first class - 75% refund

After First Class - 30% refund

After Second Class - no refund

 

All refund requests must be made in writing and either handed to an Administrator or sent via certified mail.  Refund requests may take up to 4-6 weeks to process.

 

LOW ENROLLMENT CANCELLATION

Some classes require a minimum number of students in order for the class to run. If enrollment falls below this minimum, the class may be cancelled or postponed. Students will have the option of moving to another class (refund/pay difference in class cost), forwarding payment to the following term, or applying for a refund.

 

We cannot be responsible for providing make-ups or issuing refunds, credits or transfers for course or workshop sessions missed as a result of illness, emergencies or other events beyond our control. We reserve the right to change or amend policies and/or schedules.
