<p>Geez Bassdad…you mean there are programs that take your deposit BEFORE they take YOU?? Yikes. DS has been to Eastern Music Festival, BUTI, and Aspen, and none of them required anything but an audition application fee until AFTER they accepted the kiddo. Thank goodness. I mean…there are many students who apply to these summer fest that don’t get accepted. I can’t imagine losing a $500 deposit to a program that didn’t even ACCEPT my kid!!!</p>
