Our 2010-11 REGISTRATION FORM is available at the bottom of this page. You may either print it out and mail it in (see address below) and/or visit one of our Open Houses.

Please note that the fees listed below reflect full season rates. The fees cover swimmers' participation from the first day of practice in September through USA Championship Meets if applicable.

*Applicable to high school swimmers with school commitment of 3 practices or more a week.

Payment of Program Fees:

Payment can be made in full on or before the first practice or in monthly installments for six months. If you would opt for the monthly payment plan, payments are due by the 15th of each month.

The first monthly or full payment can be submitted at one of the team's open house sessions, the first practice, or via U.S. mail. If paying by mail, please mail to the following address:

or

Subsequent monthly payments can be dropped off IN AN ENVELOPE to the appropriate folder at Central Penn Fitness Center.

Program fee checks should be made payable to "Collegiate Aquatics".

A 5% discount will be granted for the second swimmer and 10% for any additional swimmers in a family after the fee is paid for the first swimmer at the highest rate. The multiple swimmer discount policy applies only to siblings residing at the same address.

If the listed registration fees present a financial difficulty, Collegiate Aquatics coaches have the discretion to provide scholarships. Parents are welcome to speak with Kurt to discuss this opportunity. Please do not be afraid to ask! It is a program goal for ALL swimmers to be afforded the opportunity to compete on a winter team, enjoy their role as a TEAM member on Collegiate, and experience a sense of achievement. Finances should not be a barrier. All inquiries will be handled confidentially.

Family Fundraising Fee:

Collegiate Aquatics depends on fundraising dollars to meet its annual operating budget as program fees do not fully fund all of our expenses. Each family has the option of participating in the fundraising activities scheduled throughout the season or simply paying a fundraising buyout option (this buyout can be paid in full or monthly during the monthly program fee payment option).

Fundraising is assessed per family by the number of swimmers in the family. Fundraising profits a family accumulates from all fundraisers throughout the season are credited toward the fundraising fee.

Any unmet portion of the fundraising fee will be applied to any future Collegiate clinic or program fee. Families must meet their previous season's fundraising priorities in order to be eligible to rejoin the team the following season.

Assessment per family with one child: $275

Assessment per family with two children: $325

Assessment per family with three children: $350

Families who register a novice swimmer (one or more) should subtract $75 from the family's total fundraising assessment.

Please see our fundraising page HERE for details about our various fundraisers. Again, if you have a concern regarding the fundraising requirement, please contact Kurt to discuss at collegiateaquatics@yahoo.com.
