Registration Policies
Enrollment
Class sizes are limited and enrollment is on a first come first served basis. For courses to be conducted a minimum enrollment is required.
Tuition
Tuition is payable at the time of registration to hold your spot in the class. Payment may be made online via PayPal or by cash or check written to Georgetown School of the Arts and either mailed or delivered in person. There is a returned check fee of 25.00 plus any additional bank fees.
GSA Cancellation Policy
If a session is cancelled, postponed or rescheduled you will be notified 24 hours before the original starting date of the first class of the session. Rather than cancel a class we may substitute an instructor. In the case of inclement weather we will try everything possible to schedule a make up class; if there are no remaining days in the season calendar we unfortunately cannot give refunds or carry over fees to a following session.
Student Cancellation Policy
You may withdraw from a course one week or more prior to the first class of a session and receive a 100% refund less a $25.00 cancellation and processing fee.
Students who wish to withdraw from a course in which they registered must notify GSA in writing (email) or by phone (203.544.8551) in order to receive a refund. There are no refunds once a course begins. For withdrawals after the close of registration, consideration will only be given for a medical or family emergency and be on a pro-rated basis.
GSA is unable to offer refunds or credits for students missing a class or workshop. If possible a student may attend another similar class as a makeup only after arrangement with the GSA office.
Inclement Weather
For inclement weather, GSA follows the Town of Redding Closing Schedule (ctweather.com or http://www.townofreddingct.org/Public_Documents/ReddingCT_BComm/education). Classes may also be cancelled at the discretion of the instructor. Every effort will be made to contact students by phone or email.Classes or workshops not held due to bad weather or instructor's absence will be rescheduled according to studio availability.
