Payments, Cancellations & Refunds

Application Fee
A one-time $100 application fee per child is charged upon submission and is nonrefundable except where required by law. Applying does not guarantee placement.

Tuition Deposit
A 30% deposit for your child’s approved summer sessions is due February 1, 2027, to secure their spot. The deposit is applied to each session’s tuition and is nonrefundable if you cancel, except where required by law.

Remaining Tuition
The remaining 70% for each session is due 60 days before it begins.

Session Balance Due

Session 1: April 8, 2027

Session 2: April 22, 2027

Session 3: May 6, 2027

Session 4: May 20, 2027

Session 5: June 3, 2027

Late Placements
For placements offered after February 1, the deposit is due within seven days of the offer. If a session’s balance deadline falls within those seven days or has already passed, full tuition for that session is due within seven days. All payments must be received before attendance begins.

Cancellations & Schedule Reductions
Please submit cancellations or requests to reduce your child’s schedule in writing through Playground. The date we receive your written request determines the applicable refund terms.

  • Before the session’s balance deadline: The 30% deposit is retained. Any additional tuition paid for the canceled space is refunded, and the remaining balance is canceled.
  • On or after the session’s balance deadline: Full tuition remains due and is nonrefundable unless CNS fills the canceled space.
  • If the canceled space is filled: Once replacement enrollment is confirmed and paid, CNS will refund the 70% balance attributable to the space filled. The 30% deposit is retained. Replacement enrollment must cover the canceled dates and schedule at the same location. Refunds are limited to tuition actually paid.

These terms apply separately to each session and to canceled days within a session. Replacement enrollment is not guaranteed.

If CNS Cancels a Session
All tuition paid for that session, including its deposit, will be refunded.

All refund terms are subject to applicable law.
