REFUND POLICY
For all Broadway Artists Alliance (BAA) workshops and intensives, the required $300 deposit and applicable fees are strictly non-refundable. The remaining balance amount is refundable if a written request for cancellation is received by Broadway Artists Alliance 30 (thirty) days prior to the start of the program. Due to the extensive preparation required for all workshops and intensives, BAA cannot offer refunds for cancellations made within 30 (thirty) days of these programs. If a student is unable to attend a workshop or intensive, the $300 deposit may be credited for future use provided a written request for cancellation is received at least 7 (seven) days prior to the start of a program.
One Day Master Class tuition and applicable fees are strictly non-refundable. If a student is unable to attend a One Day Master Class, the tuition may be credited for future use provided a written request for cancellation is received at least 7 (seven) days prior to the start of the One Day Master Class.
BAA Pro Series tuition and applicable fees are strictly non-refundable and tuition cannot be pro-rated based on the student's attendance. If a student is unable to attend the entire BAA Pro Series, the tuition may be credited for future use provided a written request for cancellation is received at least 7 (seven) days prior to the start of the Series.
If a student fails to attend any BAA workshop, intensive, One Day Master Class, or series, and does not give 7 (seven) days notice, they must provide one of the following to be eligible to receive a credit: 1.) A doctor's note citing a serious illness or medical emergency, 2.) Documentation of paid performance employment, 3.) Written proof of unforseen travel issues (snow, cancelled flight, act of God, etc). If a student is unable to provide one of these items, BAA cannot offer a credit for cancelled enrollment in any program, One Day Master Class, or series. Broadway Artists Alliance reserves the right to cancel any program or class if less then 6 paid students have registered or if external factors might endanger participant safety (severe weather, act of God, etc). In the rare event that this occurs, BAA will offer a full tuition refund for all participants.
Credits may be used for any New York City BAA programs to which a student has been accepted. All credits will expire one year from the date on which they are issued. There are some items for which credits may not be used, which include but may not be limited to: tuition for BAA programs outside of New York City, tuition for programs hosted by BAA in conjunction with another entity, private coaching fees, yearly application fees, processing fees, housing, and merchandise. Credits are strictly non-transferable.
All $20 application fees are strictly non-refundable.
WAIT LIST POLICY
Broadway Artists Alliance accepts a limited number of students in each major and age group to ensure that class sizes will be small and each student will receive personal attention from their instructors. In some cases, a student will display the necessary level of technique to qualify for a BAA program, but there will not be a spot remaining in their major or age group. In such situations, a student may be placed on the Wait List.
If placed on the Wait List, you may call our main office on the "Call-In" dates listed below to find out if a space has become available for you. Please note: it is the responsibility of all Wait Listed students to know the "Call-In" date and to call the office ON THAT DATE. BAA cannot guarantee that any Wait Listed student will be considered if they do NOT call on that date. Furthermore, while we encourage you to e-mail us about your continued interest in a specific program, Wait Listed students should not call the office regarding acceptance on any other date, as the office staff will not have any new information to report.
If a student is accepted into a program from the Wait List on the "Call-In" date, they will then have two weeks from their date of acceptance to make a deposit for the program or their space may be released to another Wait Listed student.
BAA is proud of the individual attention our program is able to provide to our talented students due to our limited enrollment and Wait List Policy.
