Registration process

Maximum class size is 50. Also, many class sizes will be limited by instructors. Unfortunately, some of these classes are the most sought after. Consequently, registration procedures will include the following system.

  • You may register for as many classes as you like.

  • You will be given an opportunity to identify your three course selection priorities (Priorities 1, 2, and 3). Separate forms are provided to identify priorities.

  • All registrations received by 2:00 p.m. on January 10 will be processed at the same time, in random order.

  • First, the forms will be processed to assign as many of the priority class selections as possible.

  • Then registrants will be assigned to classes to which they did not assign a priority. This will be done to the extent seats are still available, as indeed they will be for most classes.

  • No course assignments will be made before January 10.

  • Members will be notified by January 23 of their class assignments.

  • Late registration—Registrations received after January 10 will be processed on a space-available basis. Registrations will continue to be accepted after the semester begins.
  • Waiting list—Members who were not enrolled in a class during the fall semester because of over-subscription will be given preference this semester if the identical class is offered again. However, you must register for the class by 2:00 p.m. on January 10 and indicate your priority on the Priority Selection Form.

You may register by mailing the Membership Application and Registration form from the printed catalog (and available online) to the address shown at the top of the form. Additional membership forms are available by calling 302/645-4111. Telephone registration will not be accepted.

Registrations for the Spring 2008 semester may also be done in-person at the Academy office, in the Lewes School, 820A Savannah Road, Lewes, Tuesday through Thursday, beginning January 2 between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Fees

The Academy's membership fee, which entitles you to take as many courses as you like, is $120 for the spring semester. Scholarship assistance is available. The Academy's income depends almost entirely on registration fees, which are applied against operating expenses, including rent for the Lewes School, and the cost of printing and postage. The Academy is expected to generate sufficient membership revenue to cover operating costs.

Tuition assistance

Further information on scholarships is available from the Academy office. A Scholarship Fund Application form is included at the back of the printed catalog and is available online. The application form must be completed and mailed to the Academy no later than January 3, 2008.

The George Kirilla, Jr. Scholarship Fund has been established at the Academy by the Kirilla family to underwrite this assistance. Academy members are encouraged to make contributions to this fund. You can declare your contribution on the Membership Application and Registration form.
