LESSON POLICY

TERMS & CONDITIONS

Thank you for choosing CENTRAL MUSIC INSTITUTE. We are excited to begin working with you. We hope you will find our policies simple and straightforward, but please ask if you have any questions!

  • SCHEDULING : Your lessons’ days, times, and makeups are scheduled directly with your designated instructor.

  • PAYMENT : All scheduled lessons are to be paid for. Payment is to be made by credit/debit card/UPI/Bank Transfer/NEFT. If you have signed up for a subscription, your card will be charged on a recurring basis. You will receive email reminders of upcoming charges, and confirmations of payments. If you are not signed up for a subscription, you will be invoiced monthly. You will receive an email notification when a new invoice has been created. Payment must first be received in order for lessons to occur.

  • CANCELLATIONS : We will not prorate your invoice or issue credits for any lessons missed or cancelled by the student. Lessons cancelled with a 48-hour notice are eligible to be rescheduled to a later date. You are required to make up missed lessons within the next 15 days. We will not prorate your invoice for any lessons you cannot reschedule within 30 days. The instructor will work to schedule the makeup lesson at both the student's and instructor's convenience. Makeup lessons cannot be applied as credits towards future invoices for your regularly scheduled lessons. Lessons cancelled or missed without 48-hours’ notice are to be paid in full and are not eligible to be made up. Your instructor will consider an emergency or illness an exception to the 48-hour notification and schedule a makeup lesson. We enforce this policy because a cancellation within such a close window to your lesson often leaves your instructor without a student during your scheduled lesson time. Scheduling a lesson requires that you accept the cancellation policy. We thank you for your understanding.

  • CENTRAL MUSIC INSTITUTE is unique in that we provide lessons by high-quality, experienced, and professional musicians. When you have a scheduled lesson time, instructors are committed to you and that time on a weekly basis. As a professional musician, your instructor also maintains a schedule of rehearsals, performances, recording sessions, and writing appointments. For these reasons, instructors make their schedules at least a month in advance. You and your instructor can move your lesson’s day and time to accommodate any scheduling changes you may have. For you to progress, it is essential to maintain a consistent schedule. If an instructor cancels a regularly scheduled lesson and we cannot schedule a makeup session, we will credit the lesson amount to you on your next month's invoice.

  • DISCONTINUATION OF LESSONS: We require a 30-day notification at the same time as your final payment. Your final payment will cover your last month of lessons. If you decide to quit and not fulfil the last month, you are still responsible for the final month's payment.

  • SUMMER SCHEDULING: We encourage students to continue their lessons through the summer. Students have more time in the summer and can make substantial progress in a short amount of time. We also encourage students to sign up for one or more of our summer music camps. Please note that students who discontinue for the summer do forfeit their time slot and are not guaranteed the same time slot the following school year.

Thanks! We look forward to beginning a musical journey with you. Please feel free to contact us with any questions at 09354017759 or info@centralmusicinstitute.com
