Registration and Tuition Policy

Tuition payments can be made by ACH or credit card. No transaction fee for all Electric Check (ACH) payments. 3.5% transaction fee for all credit card payments.
Early registration is highly encouraged to ensure a spot of your choice with early registration discount benefits. Upon reception of your payment, registration will be complete, and your class spot will be reserved.
Each student should submit a completed registration form for each camp. (Sibling students need to fill out separate forms)
Spring/Summer Camp allows taking weekly basis registration. NYSA does not offer a daily camp for Spring/Summer Camp. (Except One-Day Camp)
Sibling or friend pair-up requests MUST be conveyed to NYSA immediately after registration. We can only accommodate pairing siblings or friends in the same group if we have received notice in advance.

Attendance and Make-up Policy

There is NO MAKE-UPS for any camps. (One-day camp, Spring Camps, Summer Camps, and Winter Camps)
Classes can be canceled due to inclement weather conditions. No make-up classes will be arranged if weather-related cancellations occur.
Any absences cannot be credited, refunded, or roll over to the next session.
