We have limited space! A participant is registered only when the following is completed and received by us on a first-come, first-served basis, according to the time/date of receipt by on-line/e-mail, 617-812-0363 (fax), or from the Post Office.

Please note that we cannot finish processing your registration or reserve a spot for your child until your registration is 100% complete.

    Please note: The Tennis Academy at Harvard operates under the strict guidelines of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the City of Boston Department of Public Health, which allow no exceptions under any circumstances. These required medical forms and immunizations are almost always taken care of when children enroll in school each year.  However, no child will be allowed to participate in our academy without first meeting all requirements or presenting a signed, current religious exemption form - no exceptions.
  4. Medical Insurance Information No registration will be considered complete without this documentation.
  5. Non-Refundable Full Payment is the final step in being 100% complete.

Discounts, Deadlines, and Re-enrollment:


Discounts:

Early Enrollment Discount: If your registration is received and the five steps are completed by January 31, 2010 (website date), you will receive a $25 per week tuition discount per child.

Discount for Additional Weeks: After purchasing the first week of camp, you will receive a 10% discount on subsequent weeks.

Note: These discounts do not apply to lunch fees, merchandise or cancellation insurance.

These discounts do not exclude one another (i.e., if you register for 2 weeks or more, and complete your registration by January 31, 2010, you will receive both discounts).

Please note: To qualify for these discounts, all 5 steps of your registration must be completed and received by our office.

Deadlines:

Initial Registration: all registration materials - all medical information, and payment - must be in our office by 5:00 P.M. the Wednesday before the desired week of enrollment, subject to availability.

Re-enrollments: To re-enroll for more weeks, we must be notified by Wednesday at 5:00 P.M. the week before the desired week in person via phone 617-678-0142, or e-mail: info@thetennisacademy.com. You may also add weeks of tennis fun on-line! Just log into your account and follow the easy steps.

Emergency Registration: To ensure that we have sufficient time to complete our curriculum planning and meet our staffing needs, we have a firm deadline of 5:00 P.M. on the Wednesday before the week of enrollment or re-enrollment. However, since emergencies do arise, we may be able to accept a camper after this deadline - if there is an appropriate space available - for an additional fee of $125.

Cancellation Insurance / Cancellations:

Cancellation Insurance:

Since your plans may change, we offer Cancellation Insurance, which may be purchased for the total number of weeks of enrollment only (there is no per week Cancellation Insurance offered), at a cost of $30/week (i.e. $30 times the total number of weeks enrolled) at the time of the initial signup only. With Cancellation Insurance, if you cancel 14 days or more before the start of a session, you will receive a refund to your method of payment (minus the cost of Cancellation Insurance). If you cancel within 14 days of the start of a session you will receive a junior camp credit, good for any immediate family member valid through the summer 2011 (i.e., an additional year of camp credit) rather than a refund. This credit may not be used for the adult camp.

Cancellations:

If you have to cancel and have not purchased Cancellation Insurance, you will receive a junior camp credit - rather than a refund - valid through the summer of 2010. Junior camp credits cannot be applied to adult programs or be used by another family member or person.


Participants from Outside the United States

Campers from outside the US are required to have the same medical, immunological, and insurance information as domestic campers. This information must be written in English or be accompanied by an English translation.

Your medical insurance provider must also supply a letter, in English, stating that the participant is covered by his/her medical insurance when in the United States, and during the time of his/her participation at the camp.

Please remember that obtaining, translating, and forwarding appropriate medical forms from outside the U.S. can take a great deal of time. Since no camper can participate in the program in any way without all medical documentation being on file, please plan ahead to avoid disappointment!
