Workshop Fee

‍Program fees cover instruction, dormitory housing (double- occupancy), meals, and basic supplies. Utility fees are included in the cost of tuition. An upgrade to cottage housing or single-occupancy dorm room or cottage is optional and carries an additional fee.

All fees are to be paid in U.S. funds by money order, check, credit/debit card, wire transfer, or e-payment (a Bill.com account is required). If you choose to pay by wire transfer, you will be responsible for paying any additional bank fees. A 3% credit card processing fee will be added for all credit and debit card payments toward workshop fees.

Dorm or Cottage Housing Upgrade Fee (optional and subject to availability):

US $300 per session

Students may select to pay an additional US $300 for a single dorm room or single cottage room. Cottage Housing is an upgrade available for an additional fee, consisting of two double-occupancy rooms and a bathroom shared by the four residents. Cottages offer more space, privacy, and are closer to studios. Requests may exceed availability, and placement is not guaranteed.

Military & Educator Stand-By‍

Reduced program fees are offered to active-duty military personnel, retired military, veterans, and educators. Those who meet the requirements will be required to submit proof of military status or current employment at an educational institution.

For students, a non-refundable US $500 deposit is required within three (3) weeks of notification to hold your place in a workshop. The US $500 deposit will be applied to your total workshop fees. If you register after March 8, 2025, your total fees will be due at the time of confirmation.

Payment plans are available for students who cannot meet the March 8, 2025, payment due date. With a payment plan, the deposit is paid, and a schedule is created to break the remaining cost down into smaller payments. In general, workshops later in the program have more flexible payment plans. Full program fees are due no later than two (2) weeks before the workshop starts. If a payment plan is arranged, failure to follow the set payment schedule will jeopardize your place in the workshop.

For more information about payment plans, contact the registrar by clicking below.

If you cancel your enrollment thirty (30) days before the first day of workshop, you will receive a refund of total fees, excluding the non-refundable deposit of US $500. Dorm and Cottage upgrade fees are also non-refundable. No refund will be made if you cancel less than thirty (30) days before the first day of the workshop or if you drop out of the workshop during the session.

Pilchuck Glass School is not responsible for non-refundable airline tickets. Pilchuck reserves the right to cancel the enrollment of any student if, in the opinion of school administrators, the student’s behavior is dangerous or unacceptable in a residential school community.

All cancellations must be submitted in writing. Contact the registrar by clicking below.
