Tuition is due in full by June 1st. A $100 late fee applies to payments after June 1st. Payment arrangements can be made by emailing Jenny Beck at pointcp@gmail.com. Tuition covers all camp expenses, including private lessons, coachings, meals, and activities.

To apply for a tuition reduction, complete our Financial Assistance Request form. You can find more information on the Payments and Financial Aid page.

You will hear about acceptance decisions starting in late March.

Campers will receive their music from their session directors at least a month before their session begins. Please begin studying your music when you receive it, so you’ll be ready to play with others when your session starts!

Your application is not complete until your private music instructor completes the recommendation form. Please ask them to do so as soon as possible!

Returning campers do not need to submit a teacher recommendation.

No, unaccompanied performances are fine.

Begin your video by stating your name and what pieces you’ll be playing. Please make sure your entire body is in the camera shot. Double-check the quality of the sound before submitting the video!

Yes, please fill out an application form if you’re a returning camper. Returning campers don’t need to pay an application fee!

Yes, if you’re planning to attend a new session, you count as a “new” applicant and will need to submit an audition video. You also need to pay an application fee.

You certainly can. You’ll need to fill out two application forms, and submit two application videos (one for each instrument), but only pay one application fee.

We accept double bassists depending on the session and level of experience. We do not offer double bass private lessons during camp. Please contact us at pointcp@gmail.com to find out more.
