Q: If I decide to unenroll half way through the month, do I get a partial refund?
A: Unfortunately we do not offer refunds for tuition. If you plan to unenroll, we strongly encourage you to do so before the start of a new month.
Q: Are you a vendor of the StepUp scholarship?
A: We are not an official vendor of the StepUp scholarship. However, many of our families are reimbursed by StepUp by submitting our receipts!
Q: Do you allow make-up lessons?
A: Yes! If you miss a class you can make up your missed lesson(s) at your convenience, within 60 days of the missed class.
Q: Do you have an end of the year recital?
A: We do have an end of the season showcase, which we call our Annual Gala which occurs in May. Participation is not mandatory but encouraged.
Q: Do you offer trial lessons?
A: Yes, we offer trial lessons. Your child is welcome to take a trial lesson before signing up to see if they would enjoy the class as well as to assess their level. To schedule a trial lesson, contact us at ally@selahacademy.com.
Q: Can I pause my child’s enrollment?
A: You may unenroll at any time, but we cannot offer tuition pausing. Please note that unenrolling will forfeit your child’s seat in the class, and that you will be charged for registration upon re-enrolling. You will not receive a refund for the classes not attended, so we strongly recommend waiting until the end of the month to unenroll.
