When application materials have been accepted, students will be emailed a link to complete their registration and make a payment.
Letters of Recommendation
Letters of recommendation may come from any of the student’s teachers and submitted directly to the Westminster Summer Arts Program at [email protected].
Deposits and Payments
Participants will be asked to create a Conservatory account to register for a summer arts program. Options for payment at the time of registration are paying tuition in full or paying $150 and setting up a monthly payment plan for the remaining tuition. All tuition balances must be paid in full before the starting date of the program. We are unable to hold a place for students whose accounts have not been paid by the due date.
Wait Lists
All registrations are processed in order of their arrival. If a program is at capacity, you will be placed on a wait list. You will be added to the program and notified by email when a space becomes available.
Refund Policy
The $150 deposit per program is non-refundable. If a student must cancel for medical necessity prior to the start of the program, a partial refund may be given after review by Westminster Conservatory.
No refunds will be given one week prior to the program or once the program has started. Refunds for those sessions with limited enrollment will be given only if the space can be filled by another student.
