DEPOSIT AND PAYMENT

Deposits

A $500 per camper/per session deposit is due at the time of registration via electronic payment method (Credit Card, Debit Card, or E-Check (ACH)) in order to process a camper application. All payments, including deposits, are fully refundable through January 1.

A $1,000 per camper/per session deposit is due at the time of registration starting March 26th.

Full tuition is due upon enrollment starting May 1st.

What forms of payment do you accept? Deposits and electronic payments may be made by E-check (ACH), debit card, or credit card (we accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover). A non-refundable 2.5% credit card processing fee will be added to all credit card transactions. Families can pay by E-check or debit card to avoid credit card processing fees. E-check will allow tuition to be deducted directly from your checking or savings account.

What is the payment schedule? Upon registering and paying the deposit, families will have two options for payment. Families will receive invoices on or around the first of the month, with their accounts being charged on or around the 15th. Please note that submitting an application is different from the time of registration/enrollment. It may take up to 7 business days after submitting an application for a camper’s application to change from “applied” to “enrolled”.​ You will receive a confirmation email once a camper is fully enrolled. Payment plans are based on the date a camper is officially enrolled, not the application date.
