Tuition Acknowledgement
As with the great majority of youth orchestras across the country, the Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Ensembles (SRSYE) depend upon grants, community support, and tuition fees. SRSYE tuition rates are lower than the national average, and are significantly lower than comparable Northern California Youth Orchestras.
The following list is the tuition rates for the 2026-2027 season:
Ensemble Annual Tuition 2026-2027
String Orchestra Workshop Session I (12 weeks): $250
String Orchestra Workshop Session II (14 weeks): $325
String Orchestra Workshop Full Year (26 weeks): $550
Saturday Morning Jazz: $575
Debut Youth Orchestra: $550
Aspirante Youth Orchestra: $600
Young People’s Chamber Orchestra: $450
Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Orchestra: $775
Fees include a nonrefundable $50 administrative fee.
All fees are due at or before the first rehearsal. You may pay by phone with credit card or by mail with a check. You may also pay online; instructions for online payment will be sent with your invoice. You may also pay in person by appointment at our downtown Santa Rosa administrative offices with credit card, check or cash. Only checks are accepted at rehearsal sites.
If you choose to discontinue participation and notify the Education Department by the second rehearsal, you may receive a refund of the tuition less the $50 administrative fee. There will be no tuition refunds after the second rehearsal.
A 10% discount is provided to families with two or more current SRSYE members. Discount is applied to the lower priced tuition.
