For school-year programs (dance, private lessons, some art classes), tuition for Session 1, plus any additional fee, must be paid in full at the time of registration. For Sessions 2-4, Woodlawn Arts Academy offers three payment options:

• Session option: Students may register prior to each 8-week session. For dance, a $50 per dance costume deposit is due along with the Session 2 payment; the costume balance is due along with the Session 3 payment.
• Monthly option: Register for all classes for Sessions 2-4 and have your payment automatically withdrawn from your account monthly. Customers will be able to choose the date that the money is removed from their account monthly, and that will begin in November and end in April. Tuition for all classes for Sessions 2-4, plus the $50 per dance costume deposit for dance students, will be included in the monthly payment plan. Dance customers will need to pay the costume balance separately in December or January when costume costs are determined. A checking or savings account, or debit or credit card, may be used for this option. When using a checking or savings account, please be prepared to provide your bank’s routing number as well as your account number. If funds are not sufficient for the monthly transaction, you will receive one email from the registration software and one phone call reminder from the front desk staff. If the payment is not made within the week, the student will not be permitted to participate in their program. If this happens more than once during a school year, the family must pay by session in future years.
• School-year option: Register for all classes for Sessions 2-4 and make a full payment at the start of Session 2. When using this option, you will receive a 5% discount on your tuition. For dance students, the $50 costume deposit will not be included in that discount, but will be included in the total due at the start of Session 2. Dance customers will need to pay the costume balance separately in December or January when costume costs are determined. Check, cash or debit/credit cards are accepted.

If a payment extension is needed, please call Dale at (815) 626-4278 prior to the registration due date to avoid the late fee.

Registration fees must be paid at the time of enrollment. Registration is not complete until full payment is made, a payment plan is in place, or financial assistance funding is in place. Please inquire with the office if you have questions.
