Tuition

Most classes are 50-minutes long and meet for 12 weeks. Tuition is typically $120 per class for the entire semester (not a monthly charge). Volunteers receive a 27% tuition discount (typically $87.60 per class) as well as a stipend. (See volunteer details here.)

Most classes have additional charges for supply fees or textbooks, which can be found in the class descriptions. (Click on class name)

Full payment for classes can be made at registration or the balance may be paid in installments at our location or online. Half the tuition is due at the 6-week mark and the other half is due by the end of classes. 

Tuition may be higher for classes that meet for extended periods. Specific costs for each class can be found in each class description. (Click on class name)

If you need to cancel classes, please contact us. Note the non-refundable deposit and penalties for cancelling close to the semester start date:

Non-Refundable Deposit

An initial deposit of 20 percent of your balance must be made at the time of registration. This amount will be applied to the cost of the class. The deposit made at registration is non-refundable, non-transferable, and cannot be credited. The deposit will only be refunded if the class is cancelled. Class fees are also not refundable or transferable.
