| Tuition and
Other Costs
In addition to tuition, each program has a small fee to cover materials that are received by students, such as textbooks and other literature, mixing and dubbing supplies, and components for soldering projects. The Materials Fee for the 5-Week Program is $90, while the optional programs each have a fee of $15. Workshop
Housing
A security deposit of $50, refundable after program completion, is also required. In addition to Workshop Housing, there are similar housing choices just next to our campus. These facilities are not owned by the school, but we can book them for you. For students with cars, even more housing options exist about 5 miles away in Chillicothe. Commercially available apartments and townhouses are often used by our students.
Admission
Requirements Recording Workshop students must be at least 18 years old at the start of classes. Exceptions are sometimes made for students that are 17. In these cases, registration forms must be signed by parent or legal guardian and high school transcripts must be submitted for admission to be considered. To insure the high quality of its programs,
the Recording Workshop maintains strict maximum class sizes. Admission
is subject to available space and will be filled on a first come, first
served basis. Recording Workshop students are expected to attend all classes unless prevented by personal illness or emergency circumstances. Students with an excusable absence are responsible for reporting and arranging make-up work as soon as possible. To receive a Certificate of Completion, a student cannot miss more than 20% of scheduled class hours. Through testing and critique classes,
students are given feedback of their performance several times during
their training. Scores are presented as percentages compared to a class
average. An overall final evaluation score is calculated for each student
based on a combination of test scores, critique scores and subjective
observations of studio performance. A student’s final evaluation
cannot be more than 20% below the class average to receive a Certificate
of Completion. This final evaluation is compiled and mailed with graduation certificates
approximately three weeks after the end of the session. Students must abide by all local and state laws and are expected to conduct themselves in a professional manner. The Recording Workshop reserves the right to terminate the enrollment of any student guilty of disruptive behavior or destruction of Recording Workshop property. Tuition refund in such a situation will be determined in accordance with school policy concerning voluntary withdrawal. In addition to directing complaints to our administrative offices, students may direct such concerns to: State Board of Career Colleges and Schools, 35 E. Gay Street, Suite 403, Columbus, OH 43215. Phone: 614-466-2752. Withdrawal
and Tuition Refund Subject to administrative approval, students who must withdraw from classes due to personal illness or emergency circumstances may return at a future Recording Workshop session to complete their training with no additional tuition charge.
To register for the 5-week Recording Engineering and Music Production Program, please carefully read all information on the Registration Form and answer all questions as completely as possible. Your choice of full tuition payment or a tuition deposit of $300 in appropriate funds must accompany your registration. Registration Form and tuition payment are mailed to: Registrar Recording Workshop 455 Massieville Rd. Chillicothe, Ohio 45601 After we receive it, processing your registration usually takes just a few days. We’ll send you a confirmation of acceptance soon thereafter. About 6 weeks before classes start, you will receive a Student Prep Kit. This mailing will provide information to help you prepare for a successful learning experience. It will also contain details necessary to finalize housing and travel arrangements. This description of registration procedures presents a normal timeline. However, it is possible to accelerate the process if you’d like to get in a session that’s about to start. Assuming space is available, phone calls, faxes and email can reduce the total registration process to a couple of days. Registration Forms that indicate credit card payment can be faxed to 740-663-2427. If you are pursuing financial aid options,
your registration process will have extra steps that can require substantial
amounts of time for approval. Whatever the funding source, the key
to having things work smoothly is clear communication.
Forms you receive that request personal information should be filled
quickly, completely and with accuracy. Open
House Registration
for the Optional Programs Registration for these programs takes place during the third
week of classes. Acceptance into these optional classes is subject to
available space, the order in which students sign up and performance
in the 5-Week Program.
The Recording Workshop makes every effort to keep tuition costs affordable. Even so, some students need financial aid to make training possible. Federally backed conventional student loan programs are designed for longer-term study and do not apply to the short-term programs we offer. However, alternative funding is often available through other government programs and special interest organizations. Eligibility requirements for these financial assistance programs vary greatly. Contacting your local employment services office is the best way to explore which of these funding sources are available to you.  For those students working towards a 4-year degree in music or communications, the Recording Workshop is an excellent hands-on supplement. Such an arrangement has been formally structured between the Recording Workshop and the Capital University Conservatory of Music in Columbus, Ohio. Participating students can earn a Bachelor of Arts in Music/Commercial Music Degree with the Recording Workshop supplying up to 12 semester hours of credit. If you are a student of Capital University, please include a short note with your registration form indicating this status. All students wishing to supplement their Recording Workshop training with classes at Capital University are subject to its registration procedures and policies. For course, tuition and registration information, please contact: Dean, Conservatory of Music Students
of Other Colleges To allow for the continual improvement of its training programs, the Recording Workshop reserves the right to update curriculum and studio content as described in this brochure. In addition, the Recording Workshop reserves the right to amend administrative policies and procedures. |
