We are here for our students! It is our goal to provide our students with the best experience possible and that includes convenient discounts, payment plans and perks that extend beyond the classroom. Check them out!
The Einhorn School of Performing Arts understands the financial struggles facing theater artists in New York today, and we want to makes things a little easier for you!
For all of our students who just can’t get enough of ESPA, we offer a “Bundle Discount” when you register for multiple classes:
Enroll in 2 classes - get 10% off the total tuition
Enroll in 3 or more classes - get 15% off the total tuition

We also offer flexible payment plans that allow tuition fees to be divided into installments over the course of the semester. We currently offer four different payment plans from which to choose:
Rockstar – You pay your full tuition when you register for your class(es).
Halfsies – You pay half of your tuition when you register, and you pay the remaining half by the midpoint of your semester.
Quarterback – You pay your tuition in four equal installments over the course of your semester.
Starving Artist – You pay on a weekly basis. This plan stipulates that if you have a class that lasts 5 weeks, your tuition will be broken up evenly into 5 weekly payments, the first of which must be paid upon registration. Note that even if you are absent for a week of class, you are still obligated to pay your tuition installment for that week.
We accept cash, check or credit card. If you choose to pay by cash or check, you are responsible for bringing in or mailing all of your payments on the dates agreed upon in your plan. Alternatively, our credit card system allows your card to be automatically charged on the dates specified in your plan.
Note: Discounts apply to all acting, playwriting, directing and movement classes, but exclude workshops and intensive and are only valid at the time of registration. There is a nonrefundable $50 deposit required for all classes that comes out of your tuition (it is not an additional fee). Deposits must be paid for each class at the initial point of sale with a credit card.
