We do have a few options available for those looking for alternative payment options. Half of tuition is due by the first day of school, and then we have a 3 month payment plan for the second half to be paid by the mid term. Our tuition policy states that all tuition payments must be finished and paid in total by the Spectrum School of Massage (SSM) mid term. Dates will vary based on the program and the start date.
