Tuition charges
For students enrolled in classes that meet from September to June, all tuition is paid monthly. This is the year's tuition divided into 9 equal payments and is paid every month. This means that you will be charged the same amount each month despite the number of weeks in that month. All tuition is automatically billed to your credit card or bank account and is paid the 1st of every month, September through May.

All PDT tuition is charged as a flat monthly rate. For this one monthly fee, students can take as many classes as they like in their level or lower. There is no additional cost to participate in extra classes.
