# Penalties

Failure to make the first tuition payment on time will result in a $100.00 late fee and the student losing a guaranteed place in class, thus moving that student to the end of the waiting list.

A $50.00 late charge per student will be assessed if payment is not received by the due date. If an account falls past due thirty (30) days, the parents will be contacted, and the student will not be allowed to attend classes until the tuition is brought up-to-date. The account will be subject to appropriate penalties including all late fees. Once a three (3) pay or one (1) pay account falls thirty (30) days past due, the account will automatically revert to the ten-pay plan for the entire yearly amount.

MPCS must rely on tuition income to meet its operating expenses. Since salary obligations are contractual in nature and are based on income projected by enrollment contracts, it is essential that the income from tuition be assured. For this reason, the school follows the withdrawal policies in the student handbook when dealing with situations in which students withdraw from school before the end of the school year or when students enroll after the school year has already begun.
