Full tuition is due at the beginning of the semester, unless otherwise arranged with the director.  All tuition payments should be made payable to BELMONT UNIVERSITY and mailed, delivered to the Academy office or submitted online.  If multiple tuitions are being paid per semester, permission may be granted by the Academy Director to pay half the total tuition amount at registration and the remainder at the mid-point of the semester; no invoices will be sent.

A discounted tuition rate may apply to a family with approval by the Academy Director if at least one of the following criteria is met:

  1. the student is an employee or student of Belmont University
  2. the student is a dependent of a Belmont University employee
  3. the student is enrolled to study more than one instrument*
  4. the student has a sibling simultaneously enrolled in a Belmont Academy lesson*

*In situations 3 and 4, students must be enrolled for full semesters of lessons; abbreviated semesters must be approved by the Academy Director and the instructor of the student.

The cost(s) of music, books, and other materials is not included in tuition. Students are responsible for directly reimbursing an instructor any costs of music supplied by the instructor.

Limited scholarships are available each year. Please click here for more information.
