The early decision deadline for Tuition Assistance Applications was February 10th. We are still accepting applications on a rolling basis as spots allow.

Summer Policies:

Please be sure to read our family handbook and policies thoroughly for updated summer policy changes regarding waitlists and withdrawals. Some key policies:

Held Tuition Spots:

In order to ensure that students participating in the Tuition Assistance program have access to programming, NEMPAC opens tuition assistance applications in advance of general registration. Additionally, spots are reserved in summer workshops for students receiving aid. The number of spots are determined before each session and depend on class size.

If not used, reserved spots will be released to waitlist students on FEBRUARY 11TH, 2025.

Summer Waitlists:

Should a spot in a class or workshop open up, you will receive communication about the available spot via email. You are given 48 business day hours to respond. If you wish to take an open spot and enroll, full payment is due within 48 hours of acceptance. Otherwise, your spot will be opened to the next person on the waitlist. If you are not able to make full payment but still wish to enroll, we will work with you directly on a payment plan option. Due to the popularity of our week-long summer workshops, getting off the waitlist will not be solely based on first come, first serve. We will first prioritize students that were not able to get into any other weekly programs.

Withdrawals and Refunds: If you choose to withdraw from your workshop:

Prior to the Registration and Payment Deadline of April 1st, tuition will be refunded or credited for one year, not including a 25% non-refundable deposit, applied to each program withdrawn from.
After the Registration and Payment Deadline of April 1st, no refunds or credits will be issued
