Registration Basics
 
Registration begins on August 15, and is organized to help give all participants an opportunity to take their preferred classes. Please do not mail your registration deposit prior to August 15. All envelopes will be dated and numbered upon receipt and processed in order. If the envelope is postmarked "August 14", or earlier, the extra postmarked days will be added to August 15, and your registration will be placed at the bottom of the pile for that day’s receipts.

$200.00 deposit is due with registration. We are unable to accept registration via phone or fax. All conference fees must be received “in full” by November 10, 2011. While classes may be open after that date, early registration helps avoids disappointment. Returned check charge, $35.

However, as a convenience to our students we offer payment options through PayPal on our website. PayPal will accept a variety of payment methods including credit cards. Although Registrations will still only be accepted and processed via regular mail, a deposit or payment can be made through PayPal. Provided verification of payment through PayPal has been received via email by the time the envelope is opened a Registration envelope will be processed in the normal fashion. PayPal sends an email verification to The Academy immediately. You are not required to have a PayPal account in order to use the services of PayPal. Should you decide to use PayPal, The Academy will required a 3% charge for each payment to help defray the cost of this service to the Academy.

Alternate Payment Option: PayPal
 
As a courtesy to students, we are offering the option to pay for tuition and other costs via the services of PayPal. PayPal will accept credit cards, bank transfers, debit cards, and more. Plus, you can pay instantly, even without a PayPal account.

PayPal does not charge individual buyers (students) a fee to use their services. However, The Appliqué Academy does require a 3% charge for each transaction from a student to partially cover the seller's (The Academy) cost.

You are welcome to pay your deposit, your final payment, or both through the services of PayPal. For more information please click here.
