Tuition, Discounts, and Scholarships
TUITION FOR ALL CLASSES IS $299
If you are unable to attend a class for any reason (including weather), no refunds or exchanges will be provided. STC rarely cancels events due to inclement weather. If STC cancels a class session for any reason, including inclement weather, we will email you. We will make every best effort to reschedule the class at a time convenient for the instructor and the majority of the students, but tuition is non-refundable.
If you are no longer able to attend the class as scheduled, please submit a written request to Classes@ShakespeareTheatre.org. 50% will be refunded if registration is withdrawn until one week prior to the first scheduled class. Starting a week prior to the first scheduled class, TUITION IS NON-REFUNDABLE.
SCHOLARSHIPS
In order to make our classes accessible to everyone, need-based scholarships are available.
Please fill out the scholarship application and email it to Classes@ShakespeareTheatre.org. Applications should be submitted at least one week before the class is scheduled to begin.
Scholarships for Classes are made possible by the Lorraine S. Dreyfuss Theatre Education Fund.
