Policies, Guidelines, and Procedures*
$100 non-refundable Registration Fee will be added to the tuition rates above. During Early Bird registration period ending on June 15th, the registration fee will be reduced to $50. Our online registration makes it easy to pay in 1 or 10 installments.
*This is a partial list. For the full list, please refer to our Parent Handbook. In case of inconsistency between the list below and the Parent Handbook, the Handbook prevails.
Charter & Homeschool Families
We are vendors for several Home and Charter School organizations. Please check with your organization and if we are not on their list, please let us know and we will do what we can to become a vendor for your organization.
​
Vouchers should be emailed to info@norcalchildrenschorus.org.
Charter schools require our staff to live scan. NCCC will pay for this expense only for children who register for the full year. If you register for a semester and/or leave after 1-2 rehearsals, you will need to reimburse NCCC for this expense.
​
If for any reason the school refuses to pay for your tuition, you will be personally responsible for the payment and your card/account on file will be charged.
Volunteer Requirements
NCCC requires 10 hours of volunteer work per family. You may opt-out for $15/hour.
​
Tours & Workshops
Our Bel Canto and Bella Voce are our touring choirs. Fees for tour are not included in tuition. Tours are generally announced at the first parent meeting of the year.
​
Workshops are events separate from the normal schedule, with no registration fee required. Free workshops are offered at times, with others requiring a minimal fee. Check our Classes & Workshops page for more information.
Refund Policy
NCCC choirs function as a team with every member important, and significant effort and resources are spent on choosing music and events to best fit our singers. Because every singer is expected to fulfill his or her commitment for the entire season, tuition is non-refundable, with very few exceptions.
​
• If a singer leaves the choir after their first rehearsal, $50 will be deducted from the tuition paid and the balance refunded.
• If a singer drops after two rehearsals, $75 will be deducted from the tuition paid and the balance refunded. After three rehearsals, tuition is non-refundable and all charges will continue as scheduled until the end of the season (May).
Possible Exceptions: The board of directors may make exceptions to our drop/refund policy in two cases: serious illness or injury, or the family moves outside the NCCC attendance area.
​
Late Payment Policy & Fees
As a non-profit organization with the aim of providing the best choral experience possible, NCCC is funded by tuition, fundraising, and donations, with tuition covering approximately 75% of the costs.
-
Payments received more than 10 days after their date due will incur a $15 late fee. This applies to all monies due, including payments for wardrobe, t-shirts, tour payments, tuition, and vouchers from home school or charter school organizations.
-
In the event that a payment is more than 10 days late, the family may be contacted and asked to provide a check or credit card for immediate payment of the amount due and $15 late fee.
-
If a tuition payment is late more than 30 days, the singer will be unable to participate in rehearsals, performance, or other events until the account is paid in full.
-
Accounts late more than 30 days may be given a one-time opportunity for a special payment plan. If payments are made on time in accordance with this plan, the singer will be allowed to participate in rehearsals and events. Any further late payments may result in cancellation of the payment plan with the singer unable to participate until the account is paid in full.
-
If payment on an account is late more than 45 days and no payment plan is in effect, NCCC may explore other legal options for collection.More than one late payment in a year may result in a requirement that the family submit payments in advance.
-
Returned checks: A $30 fee will be billed to your account for each returned check.
Payment Terms
For your convenience, all payments are to be made via our online payment process. Payments are set-up through the registration process.
-
A 3% processing fee is added to your payment if you choose to pay by credit/debit card. Paying by ACH will incur no processing fee.
-
Pay in Full on August 10 ($45 one-time discount) or in 10 even payments on the 10th of the month from August to May.
-
Your payments will automatically be deducted on the 10th of the month from the account you indicate on the registration form.
-
Any “non-payment for insufficient funds, electronic refusal or no payment” received by the 10th will be sent an e-mail letter requesting immediate payment.
-
Payments not received by the 15th will be assessed a late fee of $30. Payment can only be made online at the NCCC website.
-
If payment is not made by the following rehearsal, your child will not be able to attend rehearsal until the matter is resolved.
-
It is at the discretion of the ED/AD to make special payment arrangements with families. If payment is not made in full at the agreed-upon date, the child will be suspended from NCCC and will be allowed to return once the account is current.
-
The commitment for NCCC membership is for the year, August-May. We rely on this commitment as our budget for the entire season is based on the number of singers who enroll at the beginning of the year. Therefore, there are no refunds on tuition. The only exception would be if a family moves out of town or the singer becomes too ill to continue. Any other exceptions would require board approval.
-
Steps will be taken to pursue the matter on non-payment for any and all accounts on an individual basis until payment is made. Non-payment will result in dismissal from NCCC.
