Deposits

A housing/security deposit of $150 is required of all students upon enrollment, including those on full scholarships. This deposit guarantees a student’s housing and is used to defray the cost of damage to dormitories or loss of or damage to other property. Deposits are refunded after the program, and are contingent upon housing inspection, return of all music, and completion of Post-Program Evaluation.

Students must also submit their signed Scholarship Contract and Student Handbook upon enrollment to secure their spot in the program.
