To enroll in a program a $300.00 deposit is due along with the enrollment form before any space can be held on any of our programs. Should the total cost of the program exceed $3000.00 (CAD or US), a deposit of 10% of the program fees is due at the time of enrollment. The balance of the program fees are due no later than 45 days before the program start date. If the program is booked less than 45 days prior to the program start date, then the full program amount is due immediately. A late booking fee of $45 will apply and will be added to the program price.
