FAQs

How do I know which classes are full?

When viewing the class schedule online, all open classes will appear in green, while all closed or full classes will appear in red. A pending class will also appear in red. You may register to be put on the numbered wait list at no charge.

What happens if I register for a class and my child doesn’t like it?

We have a two week written notice drop or cancellation policy. This may include an email or downloaded drop form. Please contact us at once. We will be glad to suggest other class options which may include a different type of class. Tuition is due during this two week period, but refundable beyond the second week.

Why is there an extra charge on my account when I go to register?

There is a registration fee which is calculated as soon as you enter your information into our system. This is an annual fee which is calculated each fall season. Returning students have a discounted annual registration fee.

I thought I wanted to register now, but changed my mind and now have a registration and tuition fee on my account. How do I remove it?

Please email info@danceconnectionpaloalto.com to have your accounted edited. We can delete your enrollment until you are ready to register for a class. The registration fee will remain on your account, and the tuition fees are credited.

I registered for a class, paid the fees and received an email confirmation. Now I want to switch classes. How do I make this change?

You may edit your class selections until midnight EST on the day you register. After that time, any changes must be made through the admin office. Please email info@danceconnectionpaloalto.com to make any changes.

If I list “Do not send emails” how will I receive information about important events such as performance information.

All of our information is distributed via email, and we never compromise our client’s information. If you choose not to receive emails, you will be responsible for finding out any information on your own through our website or at the studio. We have become paperless and will not send out mailings.

I have two children who want to dance. Do you have a family discount, and why is that not showing up when I go to pay when I register?

Families receive 10% discounts on additional family members. Upon registering, the system will calculate this discount at midnight EST, therefore the discount will appear as a credit on the first month you register and will be adjusted each additional month. The credit will apply to your general account.

How do I access my account information online, pay my bill, or view costume or performance information?
