Payment of registration fees can be made in either 2 equal payments (half due when mailing in registration and the remainder by June 15th) or the entire sum may be paid when mailing in the registration.

Student Fees

Suzuki students are charged a nonrefunable registration fee of $60 (1 registration fee per family). The Suzuki curriculum includes a master class, a technique, and a repertoire class. Student tuition is assessed depending on the level of ability.

Book 1 through Book 3 students are charged $350. Book 4 and beyond are assessed a $400 fee.

Pre-Twinkle students (those who have not yet mastered the Twinkle Variations) attend a technique class, master class, and creative movement class each day. These students are charged $275.

Enrichment courses are provided for students, siblings, and even parents. These courses cost $50/course (check to verify prerequisites for each class under the main heading of "Enrichment Classes"). Most students are able to take 1-2 enrichment courses if they choose.

Teacher Fees

The registration fee for teachers involved with a teacher training course is $60.

The Book 2 and 4 Teacher Development course costs $400.

Adults (not including parents) who would like to observe the institute classes (for example, observe various teachers during their instruction of a master or technique class) are charged $20/day or $50/week. This option is often beneficial for violin teachers who would like observe other teachers or hear recommendations which are made for their students.

Late Fees

Registration received after May 15th will be assessed a late fee of $50.

Housing

Families staying on campus can register for double rooms ($28/person/night) or single rooms ($35/person/night).

No changes can be made to reservations after June 15, 2010 and reservations will be cancelled if not paid by June 15th. Payment is required by this date and is not refundable by the University. Please note that if a single room is requested but more than one person stays in it, an extra fee will be assessed during institute by the University.

Check-in begins on Sunday, July 11th with check-out on Saturday, July 17th.

Meals

Meal passes cost the same for children and adults at $125/person/week. There is no charge for children ages 3 and under. Meals begin with supper on Sunday, July 11th at 5:00 p.m. Purchased meal passes provide 14 meals (dinner 7/19 through dinner 7/16). Lunch and dinner on 7/14 are not included (afternoon off).

Meals may also be purchased individually at the walk-in price instead of purchasing a pass for the week or a lunch only pass may be purchased for $40 for the week. The lunch only pass is a good option for people not staying on campus.

Parking Permit

Since parking is limited on or near the University Campus, a parking permit can be purchased for $10.00. This is highly recommended for anyone planning on parking on campus.

Institute T-Shirt

An Institute t-shirt is included in the tuition fee; t-shirts may also be purchased for a separate fee.

Cancellation Policy

A refund of all fees paid, excluding the $60.00 registration fee, will be given only if notice of cancellation is received in writing by May 15th, 2010. Cancellation notices may be sent via email to Lamar Blum at aaee11e@yahoo.com or to P.O. Box 4143, Missoula, MT 59806. Due to commitments to faculty and travel arrangements, persons who withdraw after May 15th forfeit all fees. There is a $35 charge for returned checks.
