Lesson Fees for Individual Students
Students will have thirty five (35) lessons throughout the 2017-2018 school year, which begins on Monday, August 14, 2017. The total cost of lessons is divided by ten (10) equal monthly tuition payments rounded to the nearest dollar amount. Each month’s tuition payment is due at the first lesson of the month, August through May. Monthly tuition is based on the following:
| Lesson Time | Rate | Monthly | Lessons | Months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30 Minutes | $27 | $94.50 | 35 | 10 |
| 45 Minutes | $38 | $133.00 | 35 | 10 |
| 1 Hour | $43 | $150.50 | 35 | 10 |
| 1 1/4 Hours | $54 | $189.00 | 35 | 10 |
| 1 1/2 Hours | $65 | $227.50 | 35 | 10 |
| 2 Hours | $86 | $301.00 | 35 | 10 |
Additional charges will be added for sheet music, music books, etc., purchased specifically for you or your child. For those students starting at other times during the year, the monthly charge might vary depending on the number of lessons remaining in the year. For additional details please refer to the monthly Fee Calculator under Resources. Typically, lessons taken during June and July are charged on a per lesson basis.
The monthly rate may be different for students who join the studio during the studio year based on the number of lessons and months remaining.
Theory Class Fee
Theory classes are held on a flexible every other week schedule on Friday afternoon throughout the 2017-2018 school year. Adjustments will be made for holidays, etc. The cost of each theory lesson is $15.00.
Studio Fee
A $60.00 per student studio fee is assessed once a year, and it is payable with the first month’s tuition payment. This fee is used to help to defer the costs associated with researching and locating music and books, renting recital halls, recital piano tunings, and purchasing other studio materials used by all students.
