CONTINUING CLASSES
All classes are continuing classes with the exception of those marked
with an asterisk (*) in the Schedule of Classes, which are session classes
(see below). Continuing classes begin the week of September 18, 2006 and
continue through June 16, 2007. Students may enroll in continuing classes
at any time during the year, space and curriculum permitting.
The tuition listed by each class is based on a fourweek
month and is adjusted during months with holidays or a varying number
of weeks. Students are billed prior to each new month with tuition being
due by the first of that month. Students or parents of children wishing
to withdraw from class must notify the office at least one week prior
to the beginning of a new month in order to avoid incurring new tuition
charges. Refunds are not possible after the first of the month if a student
withdraws within that month.

SESSION CLASSES
Session classes run for a specific number of weeks, and the curriculum
for these classes is sequentially developed. Most Fall Semester session
classes begin the week of September 18. Please see the Schedule of Classes
for a complete listing of these dates. All session courses are noted by
an asterisk (*) in the schedule.
Tuition for these courses is based on the number of weeks in the session. Session classes are paid for in advance, and the student enrolls for the entire course. A $100 non-refundable deposit per class reserves space, and the tuition balance is due September 1.
Cancellation and Refund Policy: The Center
will refund all monies paid for session classes, except the deposit, if
a student cancels at least four business days prior to the first class
meeting; 80% of the tuition will be refunded if cancellation occurs at
least four business days prior to the second class meeting; 70% of the
tuition will be refunded if cancellation occurs at least four business
days prior to the third class meeting. No refunds are possible thereafter.

SUMMER CLASSES
All Summer classes are Session courses, which run for a specific
number of weeks. These classes are paid for in advance, and the student
enrolls for the entire course.
Cancellation and Refund Policy: The Center will
refund all monies paid for Summer classes, except the non-refundable deposit,
if a student cancels at least four business days prior to the first class
meeting; 80% of the tuition will be refunded if cancellation occurs at
least four business days prior to the second class meeting; 70% of the
tuition will be refunded if cancellation occurs at least four business
days prior to the third class meeting. No refunds are possible thereafter.
In all refund instances, a minimum of the non-refundable deposit will
be retained.
ABSENCES AND MAKE-UP CLASSES
Refunds or credit cannot be given in the case of absences and in no event
may missed classes be deducted from tuition payment. However, students
who notify the office, not the instructor, 24 hours or more in advance
of an absence will receive a make-up class as a courtesy. Unforeseen circumstances
that prevent students from giving 24-hour notice cannot be accommodated.
Students may use make-ups in appropriate alternate classes, excluding
the class(es) they are enrolled in, space and curriculum permitting. Only
enrolled students who are currently attending classes may schedule and
attend make-ups. Make-ups expire six months from the date of the original
absence and must be scheduled with the office, not the instructor. If
a make-up class is scheduled but not attended nor cancelled with a minimum
of 24 hours notice, the make-up is then forfeited.

NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
The Brentwood Art Center does not favor or discriminate against
any individual based on race, religion, national origin or sexual preference.
Our students, staff and faculty include a diverse population, embracing
a variety of traditions, and the Brentwood Art Center recognizes the importance
of each individual’s beliefs and convictions. Due to our policy
of non-discrimination, we maintain an academic calendar that includes
a limited number of holiday closures. We extend our make-up policy to
any student who is unable to attend class due to the observance of a religious
or cultural holiday, provided we receive 24 hours notice, as we do to
any student who provides this notice of an absence for any reason. For
further information, please review our “Absences and Make-up Classes”
policy above.
MISCELLANEOUS
The Center reserves the right to change its calendar, withdraw a class,
modify curriculum or substitute instructors at any time. There will be
no refunds for classes in the event of teacher substitution due to illness
or other circumstances.
The Center also reserves the right to require the withdrawal of any student whose conduct is deemed detrimental to other students, faculty or staff. Back to Top
ARTWORK STORAGE
Because our storage space is limited, students are asked to take completed
work home as soon as possible. The Center is not responsible for artwork
left on the premises or used for display, but every effort is made to
protect it. Artwork will not be available for
retrieval if it has been left longer than one semester.
