“Initial Payment” Policy:

Please note that if the initial payment is not made by January 30, 2022, families automatically forfeit their student’s seat and the seat will be given to the next available student on the waitlist.

“Final Payment” Policy:

If the final payment is not received by deadline, student participation will be suspended. Students can return to participate in the program once the balance is paid. If a balance is not paid by the end of the school year, accounts will be forwarded to collections and future registration will not be permitted until the balance is cleared.

Late Registration Policy:

Late registration is when a student is registered after the program begins. While permitted if seats are available, deadline adjustments for the final payment will not be made for late registrations. The initial payment is due according to the deadline provided through electronic invoice.

Pro-rate Policy:

Full program price will be assessed at all times. CPA Plus does not pro-rate costs according to the time of registration.

Drop-In Policy:

Please note that CPA Plus is limited in the number of accommodations that can be made each day for the Spring 2022 semester and families may or may not be approved for drop-in. Families will be notified immediately after receipt of registration if CPA Plus cannot accommodate in order to give them time to make other arrangements.

Planned Drop-In Policy: For your convenience, CPA Plus allows for unregistered CPA Plus participants to attend sessions on a drop-in basis at $25/day. See the “Drop-In” tab from the drop-down menu for registration and information. Families must register separately for each date that a student drops in. Payment is typically made upon pick-up or an electronic invoice will be provided. Please note that a 15% late fee will be assessed if payment is not made within 1 week of the drop-in date.

Unplanned Drop-In Policy:

Please note that CPA Plus WILL NOT offer “unplanned drop ins” for the Spring 2022 semester according to the policy below. Below is the previous policy that does NOT apply to this semester:

If a student is not picked up by the end of the school day (3:30p), CPA Plus will supervise the student until 6:00 pm. The charge for supervision is $25/session for each individual student. Families will be invoiced, or payment can be made at the time of pick up. Please note that a 15% late fee will be assessed if payment is not made within 1 week of drop in date.

Late Pick-Up:

Please note that CPA Plus is requiring that caregivers arrive at 5:45p to sign students out and wait outside the building to maintain social distancing (i.e. car or outside front entrance). Caregivers are required to pick students up no later than 6pm. It is imperative that families arrive on time since deep sanitization will begin at 6pm in the school building. In order for these procedures to begin, all individuals must vacate the building by 6pm.

A late fee will be issued for families that arrive after 6pm. Below is the previous “late pick-up” policy which DOES NOT apply to the Spring 2022 semester:

Caregivers are responsible for picking students up on time at the conclusion of the program. In the past, CPA Plus allowed for a 15-minute grace period to accommodate for unexpected events. This means that if a program ends at 5:00 pm, caregivers have until 5:15 pm to pick the student up before a late fee is assessed. Caregivers who pick students up after the grace period will incur a $25.00 late fee.

Note: If you have not arrived to CPA Plus by 7 pm, CPA Plus will be required notify the police.

CPA Plus Program Registration FAQs:

Q: Why are families required to pay a fee for CPA Plus clubs and why do some of the program costs change from semester to semester?

A: CPA Plus does it’s best to keep the costs for all clubs at an affordable rate. As part of its public charter structure, CPA Plus does not receive specialized funding to subsidize the costs assessed for each program. There are times when the price may increase due to the negotiated cost that CPA Plus must pay providers for partnership and club facilitation. The cost per session ranges between $10-$15 per [2 hour] session when you break the fee down. For instance, a club that consists of 20 sessions and costs $200.00 for the semester is only $10.00 per session. Quality internal and community partnerships, as well as efficient enrichment opportunities for students is a priority for CPA Plus. In order to continue accomplishing these goals, it’s required to assess a monetary structure to support operational needs.

Q: How do I find CPA’s after-school enrichment programs?

A: Visit www.collegeparkacademy.net and click on “CPA Plus”. The drop down menu will provide you with the program categories. Click on the categories to explore the programs. Remember to carefully review the program details, as they differ with each program (i.e. start date, time, min/max registration, etc.).

Q: How do I register for programs?

A: You will find a registration link in red under the program description to register for each program. Following registration, you will receive an electronic invoice that includes description of what you registered for and instruction on how to make payment through an external payment source (CHECK SPAM FOLDER). Typically, invoices are sent out on Fridays. CPA Plus will only accept online payments for the Spring 2022 programs.

It’s very important that the correct program is selected and to keep in mind which payment option you have chosen, as you will be billed accordingly. Most programs are given the same payment options, but some require a one time operational fee that’s due as your first and final payment. If you decide a payment plan option, you must be mindful of the deadlines that each installment is due to avoid late fees (see above for deadlines). Below are the payment options:

Opt #1 (Payment broken up into 2 installments): 50%, 50%
Opt #2 (One payment): 100%
Q: How can I keep track of the class I registered for, the amount I paid, and the payment deadlines?

A: Each caregiver will be invoiced and have access to their invoices, registration, and payment history. This information can be located on the electronic invoice that is emailed. It is the responsibility of the caregivers to provide a valid email address on each registration form, as invoices will be emailed to caregivers. Exceptions will not be made after late fees are assessed. Unpaid balances will also impact student participation with current and future programs.
