TC GUIDED STUDY HALL (GSH) AND TC INDEPENDENT STUDY HALL (ISH)
REGISTRATION AND DEPOSIT:
To register you must email Tutoring Club of McLean at SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com. We will be filling spots based upon the receipt of these emails and a deposit. There is a $250 non-refundable enrollment fee, of which $175 will be applied to your first payment. If you send the email and pay the deposit and we cannot accommodate your enrollment due to reaching capacity, we will refund your $250 fee.

DAYS, DURATIONS, AND COMMITMENTS:
Each session is one hour and is to be used BEFORE a scheduled tutoring session. Students may also use GSH or ISH immediately after their tutoring session instead of going home to finish their work if they still have a little more schoolwork to do.

Membership for TC Guided Study Hall (GSH) and TC Independent Study Hall (ISH) is paid quarterly as outlined below and is non-refundable. We recommend booking early as there is limited space.

  • Quarter 1: Aug. 29 through Oct. 31 = 2 months
  • Quarter 2: Nov. 1 through Jan. 31, less TCM closure of Nov. 23-27 and Dec. 18 through Jan. 1 = 2.5 months
  • Quarter 3: Feb. 1 through Mar. 31 = 2 months
  • Quarter 4: Apr. 1 through Jun. 16 = 2.5 months

Save 5% if you pay for two quarters when you sign up. Save an additional 5% if you pay for all four quarters when you sign up.

If paying quarterly, tuition for the first quarter will be charged to your credit card on file when you reserve your spot. Subsequent quarters will be charged to your credit card on file on Nov. 1, Feb. 1, and Apr. 1.

If enrolling mid-quarter, tuition for the balance of your starting quarter as well as the tuition for the next quarter will be charged to your credit card on file when you reserve your spot. Subsequent quarters will be charged to your credit card on file on Nov. 1, Feb. 1, and Apr. 1.

A valid credit card must remain on file for the duration of the membership. You will not receive a quarterly bill but will receive an email receipt.

No refunds are issued for Study Hall payments. Membership can be transferred to another student, subject to a $99 enrollment fee for new TC students.

ATTENDANCE:
Session changes and cancellations must be made 48 hours before your student’s scheduled session VIA EMAIL ONLY to SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com. No-Call / No-Shows will result in the loss of the session. We understand students get sick and things happen, so please notify us as soon as possible and we will be glad to work with you.

Once a GSH or ISH membership is purchased, the student has a seat reserved. If the student does not attend a session, it is forfeited. If they can’t make it in-person, they can swap the session for a TC Online session. This way, it is not all or nothing. The student may make-up one session per one-month period provided available space and with timely notification (48-hour notice). Students are required to arrive and depart on time.

CANCELLATION:
We require quarter commitments so that we can really get to know your student and their work style. Students can cancel their enrollment in a Study Hall program within 48 hours of purchase and receive a full refund. After 48 hours, no refunds can be given.

To end GSH or ISH enrollment, a 30-day written notice to SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com is required prior to the end of the quarter so we can open up the spot to another student. Without this notice, the next quarter’s tuition will be charged on the first of the month and is non-refundable. No exceptions.

We look forward to working with your family and to seeing your student become a success story!

TC ROBUST/GUIDED ACADEMIC MENTORSHIP PROGRAM (RAMP/GAMP)
REGISTRATION AND DEPOSIT:
To register you must email Tutoring Club of McLean at SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com. We will be filling spots based upon the receipt of these emails and a deposit. There is a $250 non-refundable enrollment fee, of which $175 will be applied to your first payment. If you send the email and pay the deposit and we cannot accommodate your enrollment due to reaching capacity, we will refund your $250 fee.

ATTENDANCE:
Meeting changes and cancellations must be made 48 hours before your student’s scheduled session VIA EMAIL ONLY to SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com. No-Call / No-Shows will result in the loss of time from your hours with the Academic Coach. We understand students get sick and things happen, so please notify us as soon as possible and we will be glad to work with you.

Also, regular meetings with your Academic Coach, as discussed in our initial meeting, are imperative for your student’s success. If your student regularly misses meetings, we may need to reevaluate your student's participation in the AMP program. Please do not hesitate to contact us if this becomes a concern. At times, parental participation may be requested to provide additional support for your student.

MINIMUM TUTORING:
RAMP Membership: If your student falls below 4-6 hours per week of tutoring for more than two consecutive weeks, the student’s AMP meetings will be suspended until they have the minimum sessions of tutoring for one week.

GAMP Membership: If your student falls below 2 hours per week of tutoring for more than two consecutive weeks, the student’s AMP meetings will be suspended until they have the minimum sessions of tutoring for one week.

PROGRESS UPDATES:
RAMP Membership: You will receive frequent updates from the Academic Coach. If you would like to meet with your Student Success Coach, Assistant Director, or Director, please reach out to set up a meeting.

GAMP Membership: You will receive updates from the Academic Coach as needed. If you would like to meet with your Student Success Coach, Assistant Director, or Director, please reach out to set up a meeting.

GRADUATING FROM AMP:
It is our goal to graduate your student out of the AMP program as quickly as they can to see them become a self-directed, independent learner.

PAYMENT AND FEES:
The AMP program is paid for month-to-month and only the first month can be prorated. Any prorated first-month tuition will be paid in addition to the full next month’s fee. The AMP level can be modified, as needed, with 15-days notice.

Tuition is due by the 1st of each month and will be charged to your credit card on file. You will not receive a monthly bill but will receive an email receipt. A valid credit card must remain on file for the duration of the membership.

By the 25th of each month, the Academic Coach will recommend the appropriate AMP level for your student for the next month. If we do not receive confirmation for this level by the last day of the month, your student will continue on to the recommended level.

CANCELLATION:
To allow for new scheduling, we require a 30-DAY WRITTEN NOTICE VIA EMAIL to SchedulingNVA@TutoringClub.com prior to terminating AMP enrollment.  A fee equal to one month’s tuition will be charged without this notice. No exceptions.

Refunds are offered BEFORE the program has started. Once the program has started, the hours will be banked and can be used during the following 30 days.

We look forward to working with your family and to seeing your student become a success story!
