Tuition & Financial Information
Tuition - Tuition for Summer Academy 2012 is $390. A registration fee of $50.00 will be due with each application to the Summer Academy. The remaining balance of $340 is due by May 11, 2012. A few courses have a tuition amount greater than $390.00; this is noted in the course description. If your child is placed in one of these, a bill will be sent for the difference. Make checks payable and send to: Summer Academy, 2697 East County Road E #533, White Bear Lake, MN 55110.
The $50 is part of your total tuition, not an extra charge. However, the $50 is considered part of the processing activity and will not be returned in the event of withdrawal from the 2012 Summer Academy.
Bills will not be sent unless your assigned course amount is over $390. The total tuition must be received by the Academy by Friday, May 11. If full tuition is not received by Friday, May 11, your child will be withdrawn from the Academy and another student will be put in his/her place.
Financial Aid – Summer Academy does not distribute financial aid. If you are interested in financial aid, please contact your Summer Academy district representative. Limited funds are available on a high-needs basis. If, after talking with your Summer Academy district representative, you want to apply for financial aid from your district, complete the online application and select “applying for financial aid.” Do not send any money with your application.
Financial aid, where available, covers only a portion of the total tuition. It is the parent’s responsibility to pay the remaining balance by the May 13 deadline. Mail checks to Summer Academy, 2697 East County Rd E #533, White Bear Lake, MN 55110.
Refund Policy – After a course is assigned and up through Friday, May 11th, a processing fee of $50 will be deducted from each refund. Refunds take 10-14 days to process. After May 11, no refund will be made, except for medical reasons. After the Academy begins, no refunds will be made whether the Academy asks a student to withdraw from the Academy, or whether a student requests to be withdrawn from the Academy.
Letter of Receipt of Tuition & Attendance – After the end of the Academy, a receipt will be sent to all parents/guardians attesting to the amount of tuition that was paid for Summer Academy and providing a tax identification number. These receipts have been used to claim pretax money that you have sequestered at your work, matching money from your employer, or deductions. Receipts will not be processed until the end of Summer Academy and will be mailed with your student’s evaluation. If you have papers that must have the Summer Academy Director’s signature, please mail them to Summer Academy. These also will receive attention after the end of the Academy.
