Full Session Enrollment in adult classes for the Winter 2023 session starts on November 11! The Winter term begins January 3 and ends on March 26.
Full session enrollment means you pay upfront and are guaranteed a spot in the same class each week of the session. Session enrollment has been a part of Circus Center's culture and approach to circus training for many years, because we know that a regular, consistent training regimen is the best way to learn. So we don't just offer session enrollment – we make it our best, most attractive deal for you!
Session Enrollment takes place in two rounds. Here are the key dates and all the info about how to sign up:
ROUND 1
- Round 1 starts when we release the Winter Schedule on November 11 – which is also when we will open a Winter Session Enrollment Request form for submissions. Students can take the next few days to review our class offerings, decide what you want, and submit a session enrollment request form. The deadline for Round 1 requests will be Monday, November 14 at 8pm.
- On Monday night, we will review the request pool. Many classes will have enough room for all of the Round 1 enrollment requests – so that's easy.We'll email those students on Tuesday to say, "Hey, cool, you got your class, we'll process your payment this week, huzzah!"
- For those popular classes where we get more requests than we have spots, our first move will be to loop in the class's instructor. The instructor will have the *option* to select which students to admit. This can be based on factors like grouping similarly-skilled students together, or a history of absenteeism. It can NOT be based on an instructor's personal like or dislike for a student. It's not fair to play favorites.
- If the instructor does not want to have a hand in the decision... then it's a good ol' lottery. No fair way of getting away from it. At least it'll be truly random, and not based on something dumb like internet speed.
- We will then sort through students' backup choices, etc., and email everyone no later than Wednesday, November 16.
ROUND 2
- Round 2 begins at 8:01pm on Monday, November 14. (The Session Enrollment Request form will never close.)
- All requests in Round 2 will be taken on a first come, first served basis.
- We will start notifying students who make requests in Round 2 on Thursday, November 17, and within 48 hours thereafter.
