Tuition remains the same every month. Our tuition rates are based on a 4 week/month class meeting time. Just as tuition does not increase for months where a class meets for 5 weeks, tuition does not decrease for those months where a class meets for 3 weeks. Tuition rates also include the holiday breaks deducted from the annual tuition. (ie: Spring, Thanksgiving, Winter Breaks).
