Enrollment Procedure
  1. Complete the application and return it to the school office with the non-refundable application fee.
  2. When MAB has an opening for your child, you will be notified via telephone, facsimile or email.
  3. Once the School has received the registration forms, the non-refundable enrollment fee and the signed tuition agreement, a space will be reserved for your child.
  4. School visits are required for all student applicants. Applicants will be screened where they will work with a teacher and be able to choose other work as well.

      • total tuition paid at the time of enrollment (a 4% discount applies);
      • tuition paid in equal monthly installments beginning August (or upon enrollment) and ending June;
      • half tuition paid at time of enrollment and half on or before December 15 (a 2% discount would be applied).
  2. A $25 late fee is charged for any late payment.
  3. For enrollments after the first day of school, tuition is prorated.

Wait List /Reservations
  • If enrollment is full and a parent wishes to be placed on the waiting list, or if a parent wishes to reserve a space for a time period to begin after the first day of the school calendar, the non-refundable application fee must be received in the office prior to the child's placement on the list.
  • After the first day of classes, new children will only be enrolled until November 1, after this date enrollment will take place on a space-available basis.
  • Tuition will be prorated and a tuition schedule will be set up to assure full payment by March 1.
  • Standard school policies regarding withdrawals, dismissal, and refunds apply.
 
Withdrawals and Refunds

The Director must be notified in writing of any withdrawals, giving one month advance notice. For students withdrawing from any MAB program when at least a month advance notice has been given, refunds will be made in accordance with the following policy:

  • The Yearly Registration fees are not refundable;
  • Withdrawal before August 1, any tuition paid in excess of the non-refundable fees and dues will be refunded;
  • Withdrawal after August 1, in addition to the non-refundable fee, MAB will retain a prorated tuition for the month/months (or partial months) attended.
Since MAB staffs classrooms based on enrollment, the penalty for early withdrawal [if no advance notice is given] will be payment in full for the remainder of year's tuition agreement, minus months already paid, and minus any discounts for early payments that may have been applied.
 
Re-enrollment Procedure
  • Application fee is required for all re-enrolling and new students.
  • Re-enrollment of current students and their siblings takes place between January 15 and February 15.
  • The Tuition agreement and enrollment fee is due by February 15.
  • After the February deadline, no space will be reserved for a returning student until the current year's tuition has been paid in full.

NOTE: Space availability for the following year cannot be guaranteed after this date.
