Live teacher guidance from home, with structure, clarity, and real progress.

Your total is $358 USD, paid in full or exactly two $179 USD payments. Apollo absorbs card processing for this Piano Pathways course, so no card processing fee is added. Staff confirms your payment method and exact payment deadlines in writing before agreement and invoice.

Invoice and payment dates: For approved standard registrations with an accepted agreement, one $358 USD invoice is sent October 28, 2026. You may pay immediately; full payment of $358 or the $179 deposit is due November 1, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific. With two payments, the remaining $179 is due December 1 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific on that same invoice.

On November 28, Ashton manually sends a reminder for the same invoice only if the course remains active and the verified ledger still shows an unpaid balance. Canceled or waived tuition is excluded; a withdrawn or canceled enrollment is not reminded for tuition already canceled or waived.

Approved registrations October 29–November 1 receive their single invoice immediately after agreement acceptance. Only for the ages 10–12 Monday 4:00–4:45 p.m. cohort already confirmed to launch at its November 2 noon review, the first payment is due November 2 at 3:00 p.m. Pacific: $358 for full payment or $179 for two payments. This replaces the standard November 1 first-payment deadline for those approved late registrations only. The second $179 remains due December 1 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific. Other groups require their own approved exact preclass payment deadline before acceptance; this 3:00 p.m. exception does not apply to them. Sharing interest does not trigger an invoice or authorize payment.

Each group qualifies independently for the November 2 start: its minimum of 4 eligible, enrolled learners, placement and available seats must be confirmed by staff. Maximum 12 per group. Sharing interest does not reserve a seat or authorize payment. For the ages 10–12 Monday 4:00–4:45 p.m. cohort only, Ashton makes the final minimum-enrollment and readiness review at noon Pacific on November 2 and sends the launch confirmation or nonlaunch notice by 12:30 p.m. At least four eligible, enrolled learners must already meet this cohort’s launch requirements at noon. A fourth inquiry or a later 3:00 p.m. payment cannot supply a missing fourth learner. Other groups need their own approved exact preclass decision and notice times before acceptance. After the course starts, new inquiries join the next-cohort waitlist; there is no prorated late entry.

Staff reviews placement and seats, then supplies the final written terms and exact payment deadlines before agreement and invoice. No automatic charge or renewal. Each class is followed by 15 minutes for turnover.
