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. Water comfort and Floating classes last half an hour, and the other four levels last forty-five minutes. A session runs eight weeks, and our enrollment page shows the figures for the session.

Registration

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

Billing

Tuition is billed monthly, and you can set up autopay if you like. A month with five classes in it is billed the same as a month with four, and each month shows on your account before it is billed.

Help with tuition

Ask us whether lesson assistance is open this month. We keep a few places for families who need help, and we handle every request privately.

Withdrawing

Please give us two weeks' notice before a swimmer leaves, so we can offer the place to a family on the waitlist. What happens to a session in progress is on the enrollment page.

Missed classes and make-ups

A missed class can be made up in another class of the same level within the session, if there is room. If the pool closes, the class is made up in the same session. Tell us as early as you can.

Uniforms, costumes and other costs

Every swimmer wears a cap in their level's color, and we keep a few to borrow for the first visit. Goggles, a swim shirt and a towel come from home; swim shirts are welcome in every class.
