Tuition will depend on if you are in the Art or Music category. Click below for a detailed explanation of each.
Art tuition includes supplies needed for instructional purposes such as canvas, oil paints, brushes, sketch paper and pencils.
If payment becomes a problem, please or call the Conservatory office (205-228-1028) to discuss the issue.
There will be a $35 fee for a bounced check.
If a student’s account balance is delinquent, the Conservatory may, in its discretion, deny further participation in Conservatory classes and events until the account is current or until alternative payment arrangements are mutually agreed upon.*
*The Conservatory may, in its sole discretion, consider extenuating circumstances and allow a student to discontinue lessons without penalty or further financial obligation.
No adjustment of charges or refunds will be made in the case of withdrawal after the semester begins. A student should not register for lessons or classes if he/she believes there may be any scheduling conflicts. Failure to attend classes does not constitute withdrawal. Prolonged illness, loss of job, or moving away from the Birmingham metropolitan area are the only considerations for tuition refunds and adjustments.

ALL payments should be done though ACTIVE, our registration and accounting site.
When you register for lessons through ACTIVE, you pay your $25 registration fee and then choose to pay the tuition in full or in monthly payments. If not paying in full, you MUST set up a payment plan by checking the box.
Automatic deductions are done on the 15th of the month. Fall semester has four deductions August - November, Spring semester: January - April and Summer: June - July.
NOTE: Cash or check will be accepted for payment in full but is not encouraged as it requires more bookkeeping on the part of the Conservatory.
You may make payments on ACTIVE at any time. ACTIVE recalculates your balance and still debits you on the 15th of the month regardless.
When registering for Summer camps, these have to be paid in full by the start of camp.
If you have questions about your account, you can access it here.
