Tuition, Fees & Discounts

Tuition

Tuition may be paid in full or by electing a payment plan and is due in advance of the first lesson or class. Registration is not complete until a payment has been made. Please see our policy page for more important information about tuition payment and refunds.

Payment Plans

Payment plans are available by contacting the office or for group classes via online registration. Payment plans can be set up for two payments per semester or monthly. If electing a payment plan, a credit card number must be held on file at UVMC. The first payment must be made before the first lesson or class. Past due payments will be charged to the card on file.

Discounts

Families with multiple members enrolled, or a student registering for more than one program, receive a discount of 10% off their total bill. Family and multiple class discounts cannot be combined. (This discount does not apply to Music Together programs. Music Theory classes do not count as ‘second’ classes for students in Individual Lessons or the Suzuki Program.)

Tuition Assistance

Need based tuition assistance is available. Please visit the Tuition Assistance page for more information.
