The camp price per student is $3,150. There are several options for payment plans and scholarships.

The following information is also available at cannon.appstate.edu/apply.

Scholarships

If you wish to be considered for a scholarship or an increase to an existing scholarship offer, please apply through the process shown at cannon.appstate.edu/scholarships.

• A partial scholarship cannot be applied toward the initial $150 deposit.
• Scholarship offers are not automatically applied to your balance. About 1-2 weeks after the entire registration process (shown at cannon.appstate.edu/apply) has been completed and the student is accepted to camp, staff will apply the confirmed scholarship as a discount on your account.
• Campers expecting a partial scholarship are encouraged to make the deposit and complete registration but are welcome to wait to make additional payments until their Cannon scholarship has been applied.

How to View and Pay Your Balance Online

Registrants can log into their registration account at any time to review their balance or to make a payment.

To make a payment online AFTER you have already registered and paid the deposit:

1. Click the “Register Now” link above and log in to your account. If asked for a code to access the camp registration, enter 26Cannon. Once logged in, you will see your existing order (listed as 26R Cannon Music Camp).
2. Click the “Make a Payment” button next to 26R Cannon Music Camp.
3. Click “Continue to Checkout.”

Select the payment amount you wish to make at this time. The minimum payment through the online portal is $150. For help with the Iris form and payment portal, or to make a payment over the phone, please contact Baker Stanley at (828) 262-6568 / stanleybm1@appstate.edu.

Accounts must be paid in full by June 1. See the schedule and deadlines on the next tab.

How to Pay by Check

• If you choose to pay by check, please indicate on the payment page. Once your check has been received, your registration account will reflect the new balance. The registration will not be complete until the first check is processed.
• Checks or money orders should be payable to Appalachian State University. Please include "Cannon Music Camp" and the camper's name on the check, and ensure each check has paperwork with it indicating who the payment is for and that it is for Cannon Music Camp tuition.

Please mail checks to this address:

Appalachian State University
Conference and Event Services
ASU Box 32042
ATTN: Cannon Music Camp
Boone, NC 28608

If you wish to donate a scholarship, the process is different from what is shown above (which is for family and friends paying on a camper’s account). Please contact cannonmusicccamp@appstate.edu or 828-262-4091 to learn more about giving opportunities.

Payment, Cancellation, and Refund Timelines

Also posted at cannon.appstate.edu/apply

Payment Timeline

• At registration: $150 is due to complete registration ($100 deposit + $50 non-refundable application fee).
• March 2: A second payment of any amount is due by March 2 (for campers who have applied prior to February 1). You are welcome to make payments on a schedule that makes sense for you.
• April 1: It is recommended to have paid at least 50% of your portion of the bill (not counting Cannon scholarships) by April 1.
• June 1: All accounts must be paid in full. After June 1, accounts not paid in full will receive a partial refund and the camper will be removed from this year’s camp registration.
• Registrations created after June 1 must be paid in full to complete registration and are not eligible for refunds. Campers wishing to register after June 1 should first contact the camp office to determine if space remains in camp housing.
• June 20: Camp begins.

Cancellation and Refund Timeline

• Cancellations before April 1 will receive a refund minus $50.
• Cancellations between April 1 and May 1 will receive a refund minus $150.
• Cancellations between May 1 and June 1 will receive a very reduced refund of tuition only. The other costs per student (including room and board) and the initial $150 will be subtracted from any refund issued during this period.
• No refunds will be issued after June 1.
• Camp begins on June 20.

Cancellations are only accepted by email or letter (not by phone). For cancellations, write to cannonmusiccamp@appstate.edu.

Optional Paid Electives

While campers can fill their schedule with activities already included in the cost of camp, the camp will also offer optional Paid Electives such as Piano Class ($75), Alexander Technique ($75), and Additional Private Lessons ($75-150), and more. Details are available on our website.

Paid electives will be a separate charge not covered by scholarships or camp tuition, so families may wish to discuss these options with the camper and budget ahead of time for any paid electives.

We will be in touch in June to offer elective sign-up options to registered campers! It is not possible to pre-register for electives until then, but campers and families will receive complete instructions when it is time to begin the process.

Payment for fee-based electives will be due during the first week of camp (and cannot be accepted before then). Shortly after camp begins, the same Iris form you have used to register will re-open with a convenient new page to pay for any paid electives.

Securely save your email address and password now! In late June, when it is time to pay for any fee-based electives you have selected, you will need to log in to the same Iris form you first used to register (not beginning a new account or registration entry) - this will easily add the electives to your order.
