How tuition works

What sets tuition

Tuition depends on the level, the length of the class and how many classes a week a swimmer takes. A class lasts forty-five minutes, and a session runs eight weeks.

Registration

A yearly registration covers your swimmer's file and the placement visit. It is due once a year, when you register for the first session.

Holding a place

The first payment holds a place in a class. When a class is full we keep a waitlist, offer places in the order families asked, and call or text the same day one opens.

Billing

Tuition is billed by session on our enrollment page, with autopay if you like. The page shows what is due before it is billed.

Help with tuition

Ask us whether lesson assistance is open this season. We handle every request privately, and we are glad to talk it through by phone.

Withdrawing

Tell us by text or phone as soon as you know. We ask for a week's notice before a session begins, so we can offer the place to the next family. Once a session is running, we talk it through with you.

Missed classes and make-ups

A missed class can be made up in another class of the same level within the session, space allowing. When a pool closes for weather or repairs, the class is made up in the same session.

Caps, goggles and other gear

Boards, noodles and belts are ours. A swimsuit or swim shirt, a towel, goggles and a cap for long hair come from home.
