Tuition and Fees
In addition to the tuition listed by each class, each student will be charged a $25 per semester non-refundable Registration Fee, which must be paid before attendance at the first class. Tuition must be paid upon registration unless scholarship arrangements. are made or payment plans have been established. Call for details.
Withdrawals
Students withdrawing from a class before the class begins will receive a full tuition refund (excluding the non-refundable $25 registration fee). Students remaining on the roll after the first day of class in which they are enrolled will be responsible for the class’s full tuition. It is the responsibility of the parent, not the instructor, to contact the Director of Education if a student wishes to withdraw from a class.
Financial Aid
Need-based scholarships are available each semester. If you are interested in receiving a financial aid scholarship form, please email Rozz@LyricTheatreOKC.org prior to enrollment. Financial Aid is not applicable to Private Instruction for Acting or Voice.
Placement
Acceptance into all Production Classes and the Academy Professional Artist Training track is by audition only. Our goal is to give each student the opportunity to excel, and therefore, it is important for each student to have the training, experience and maturity necessary to achieve success. We will evaluate each student and recommend the appropriate classes, productions and roles based on what will best suit each student’s needs and abilities.
Forced Closure
In the case of closure due to severe weather, we will try to make up class time but cannot guarantee that there will be time in the semester to make up the classes. The most common way to make up canceled instructional time is adding time on to the end of existing classes. In the event that our live classes are forced to quarantine and no longer be in person, we will move to an online format. The Thelma Gaylord Academy reserves the right to make instructor changes should this occur. No refunds will be provided should our in-person classes be migrated to an online format. If your student must miss class because of illness, we will arrange a Zoom meeting if needed to provide access to the class(es) from home.
