Enrollment Process

If you have any questions about tuition, course selection, scheduling or anything else, ASK US! You can contact us via website contact form, phone, email, social media, or even in person to reach out with your questions!

Take a minute to fill out a prospective student application! We’ll ask about the course you want, any repair experience you have, and when you’d like to start. New to repair? That’s fine. Just tell us where you’re starting from. We’ll contact you to answer your questions and make sure you picked the right course. You can apply free anytime!

We finalize your acceptance by sending you a formal acceptance letter. Then, you will receive a call from our school agent to finalize your schedule and discuss your payment options. During this call you will either set up a payment plan or discuss a date and method of final payment, and pick a tentative course start date.

You can split any fundamentals course into 6 monthly payments of $350 with no interest. Or, you can pay $2,100 up front. Band director courses start at $995. Either way, you’ll know the full cost before you commit. You’ll find every price on our instrument repair course cost page.

There is also an enrollment fee– $25.

After your enrollment fee has been paid and payment arrangements have been made, we send you the tool list for your course, and you order the tools yourself. If you already have some tools, simply order what’s missing. We recommend the exact tools on the list, because cheaper versions can damage the instrument you’re fixing. You’ll also need practice instruments to work on. Most tool orders arrive in 4 to 6 weeks.

Everything discussed with the school agent in step five will be written into a student services agreement document. This document will be sent to you via email for your review. Once you have reviewed and signed the document, it can be returned to CIOMIT and you are officially ready to get started!
