Autopay

Our payments are on a fully automated system.

  • Upon registering for classes at the Druid Hills Dance Center, you will be automatically enrolled in Autopay. Your card on file will be automatically charged for your monthly tuition installment on the 1st of each month tuition is due. Your card on file will be charged for all other registration, annual, company, costume, performance, and recital fees on their due dates.

  • Please note that as a majority of dancers participate in our recitals, by registering for classes, you are automatically enrolled in our end of semester recitals in December and May. Participation is not mandatory. If you do not wish to participate in our fall recital, please submit our “No Recital Form” prior to September 15th. If you do not wish to participate in our spring recital, please submit our “No Recital Form” prior to January 15th. If you do not submit this form, your card will be automatically charged for the associated performance and costume fees on their due dates. This information is included in your signed waivers at registration.

  • Our class registration is open year round. If you register for classes mid-month during the school year, your tuition will be prorated accordingly and your card will be automatically charged for your first month’s tuition and registration fee on the day that you register. Your second tuition installment will be due and be automatically processed on the 1st of the following month.

  • If your preferred payment method is declined for an auto-payment, you will be contacted for an alternative payment method. Payments made more than 15 days past their due date will be charged a late fee of $15.

Please see below for a list of automatic payment dates for the school year.

Annual Fees

  • Registration Fees: An annual registration fee of $50 per student is due upon registering each year with your first month’s tuition.

  • Performance Fees: A fall recital fee of $175 will be billed to your account August 15th and is due on September 15th. A spring recital performance fee of $175 will be billed to your account December 15th and is due on January 15th. All charges for the semester must be paid in full prior to our performances for students to participate in the show. Students are automatically enrolled in our end of semester recitals. Participation is optional to all dancers. Please fill out our “No Recital Form” if you do not wish to participate in either of these performances. If you do not fill out this form prior to September 15th for the Holiday recital and January 15th for the Spring recital, your card on file will be charged for the costume and performance fees.

  • Costume Fees: A costume fee of $75 - 95 per class (for costume purchase) will be billed to your account along with the performance fees. Company dancers will be billed fees for classes that do not share costumes from other performances or from the DHDC costume closet. Costume fees share the same due dates as performance fees. Purchased costumes belong to the dancer and are yours to keep.

  • Company Fees: Company fees are due on the first of each month along with class tuition. Our student company has additional monthly fees to cover their additional events throughout the year. See our Company Pricing Page for more information.

  • Discounts: Families with multiple students enrolled in our classes will receive 15% off of the lower tuition amount. (This discount does not apply to summer camps or annual fees). Dancers taking more than 5 classes per week will receive 50% off any additional classes taken of the lower tuition amount. This does not include company rehearsal time, as these hours are already discounted in your company fee. Please allow a short time for discounts to be applied to your account before submitting your payment.

Refunds and Absences

  • All registration, recital, costume, and company fees are non-refundable.

  • We do not refund tuition for dancer absences for any reason. Dancers are expected to attend class regularly as teachers are booked in advance. We do not offer make-up classes for absences.

  • Class cancellations due to Dekalb County closings, scheduled or unanticipated, will not be refunded.

  • Our monthly class tuition is based on the total tuition for the semester divided into equal month installments August - May (not the specific number of classes in each calendar month). Dancers who drop a class mid-month will still be responsible for that month's tuition. Tuition will be cancelled the 1st of the month following your official drop date. You will remain on Autopay until we receive your “Class Cancellation Form.” We will prorate tuition for a late or mid-month start date.

  • Company dancers who drop company mid season are responsible for paying the remainder of their company fees that include events already passed or already paid for by DHDC (not including tuition). Company dancers who drop company mid season are not responsible for paying any company fees for future events that have not already been paid for by DHDC.
