For Winter-Spring 2009 semester lessons, applicants will hear back from us in December 2008. At that time, we will inform you if we are able to provide financial assistance and if we can provide partial or full tuition. Please keep in mind that funds are limited. Availability of Tuition AssistanceWe hope to assist everyone who needs a helping hand; however, the amount of funds that are available may not cover all applicants’ requests. Our goal is to continue to fundraise to grow our ability to offer assistance to everyone who may need financial assistance for music lessons and, in the near future, classes in visual arts.
