Terms & Conditions
Registration and School Policies
PAYMENTS:
We accept personal checks, debit/credit cards, and money orders. The School does not accept cash. Returned checks will incur a $30 fee. New students are required to pay a one-time nonrefundable $50 registration fee.
PRORATE:
We do not prorate fees if a participant wishes to register after the class has already begun. We do not prorate for missed classes.
HOLIDAYS AND CANCELED LESSONS:
We are closed for Thanksgiving, winter, and spring break. If we must close due to weather, we will send out an email as well as update social media. The New York School of the Arts follows New York City Public Schools for weather-related closings. If classes are canceled, the instructor will work with the school office to schedule a make-up date. We do not refund/prorate for weather closure, and our make-up policy still applies.
CLASS CANCELLATION:
Classes and workshops are subject to cancellation if the minimum number of students required for a session are not met. Notification will be sent to registered students five days before the class is scheduled to begin.
LOCKERS:
Lockers can be reserved at the School Office. Each locker rental is $15.00 per month. Student must provide own lock. To rent a locker at the New York School of the Arts, you must be enrolled in a class for the session in which the rental applies. If a student intends to reserve the same locker for consecutive sessions, the student must update their locker registration with the office before the last day of the session.
REFUND POLICY:
To receive a refund, you must notify us in writing at registration@newyorkschoolofthearts.org. There is a $15 administrative fee for each refund.
– In order to receive a full refund, students must withdraw from a class or workshop twelve days prior to the first day of classes. – Students withdrawing from a class or workshop one week before the beginning of classes will receive a 75% refund as school credit.
– No refunds will be made after the second class without medical documentation, and no refunds will be made after a workshop begins.
– Ceasing to attend class without notifying the school does not constitute withdrawal from class.
– Refunds are issued in the same form as payment. Refunds are issued within thirty days from request in the form of the same payment. Registration and service fees are non-refundable.
TRANSFER POLICY:
All transfers must occur before the second meeting of class. Transfers from one course into another may incur additional fees, depending on the transfer. Transfer from one workshop to another is not permitted. There is a $15 administrative fee for each transfer.
STUDIOS:
-Students can arrive at their classroom studios no earlier than 10 minutes before the start time, when scheduling permits.
-Clean up time takes place during class time. All students must leave their classrooms on time at the end of the class to ensure that our facilities coordinators can prepare for the rest of the school day.
