TUITION GUIDELINES
Charging Your Account - Accounts that have cards on file will be automatically charged on the 1st of each month. If a card is declined or tuition is not paid on time, families will be contacted and asked to pay. If you are unable to pay tuition at any time, please inform us so that we can work something out with you.
We will continue to charge your account automatically until either the year is over, or you inform us that you are no longer taking classes with us. That being said, if you choose to cancel classes with us, please let us know in advance so that we do not automatically charge your card. If you terminate classes with us without notifying the office, we will not be able to offer refunds for any transactions that occur while we are unaware of your cancellation.
Refund Policy - As a rule, we are unable to offer refunds for cancelations and absences.
Refunds will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Volunteering - For each hour of volunteering that you do, you will earn $10 in “Wellspring Bucks” that can be put towards tuition or concert tickets.
Scholarships
Wellspring provides scholarships to low-income families and those suffering temporary financial hardship in increments of 25%, 50% and 75%. Children and adults may both apply with first consideration given to youth applicants. Although Wellspring would love to award all applicants, scholarship funds are limited and not all requests can be filled. If your dancer receives a scholarship, 4 volunteer hours/month, September through June are required. Failure to fulfill the hourly quota will result in your dancer’s scholarship being revoked for the remainder of the academic year. Click here to access our scholarship application form or request one from the Wellspring office at 269-342-4354 to receive by mail. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until funds run out for the 2023-2024 Academic Year.
