Payment methods. Tuition is paid in full by term (August-December or January-May) or via monthly installments in advance. Term payments or remainder of term payments (for those who join after a term has started) can be paid by check or credit card. Installments must be paid via auto draft of debit or credit card.
Please note: term checks should be made out to CMC Atlanta and hand delivered. Please do not mail checks. Have you tried to get a check in the mail lately? It's simply too risky and causes too many delays in payment.
All credit card payments include a fee of 3.5% to help cover the card fees and the administrative work to process monthly installments.
If you are making credit card payments and have not set up your auto debit, please call (404) 614-0466

CMC Decatur 189 Sams Street, Suite B, Decatur, GA 30030, USA
“Since its birth, the debate has raged on about just what is and isn’t country music. Country music is decidedly American– pieced together from English folk traditions in the hills of the Appalachian mountains and meddled together with popular and religious music with the final touch of the singer’s personal experience– country music has always, even from the very beginning, been about the story and the experience.” (onecountry.com)
The CMC Country Music Camp empowers young musicians to find their voices and to tell stories (their own and others’) through music. Campers join us for a week of immersion in country and folk traditions, from old time roots to alt-country, outlaw, honky tonk, Nashville and countrypolitan sounds. The camp curriculum includes private lessons (voice or instrumental). Students will also learn basic music theory, songwriting, and participate in performance projects. Camp culminates with an informal in-house showcase at each camp location.
Since we divide by age and skill level, our Country and Folk Camp is open to beginners and advanced students alike.
