Payment Policies

Enrollment and Tuition Deposit

All payments can be made online. Currently, only credit cards are accepted through the online billing system. If payment must be made in another form, please contact us.

Once you have been accepted into the program, you must reserve your space by enrolling online and paying one of the offered options, which may include paying the deposit, first installment, or payment in full.

• For Basic Training in Boulder, CO, a deposit of $300 is required to enroll in each phase of the program ($900 total). You are not considered fully admitted to the program until all three deposits have been paid. Half of the tuition for each Phase is due two weeks before the class begins. The remaining balance is due two weeks after the class has started. Students will be emailed an invoice six weeks prior to the start date which allows them to pay through the online billing system.
• For Regional Basic Training, Advanced Training, and Rolf Movement Training, a deposit of $300 is required to enroll in the program. Payment will be made over several installments, the first being two weeks prior to the start date of the class. Students will be invoiced a month before the due date which allows them to pay through the online billing system.
• For Continuing Education and Rolf Movement Workshops, half of the workshop fee plus the full administrative fee is due at the time of enrollment. The second half of the workshop fee is due by the start of class. Students will be invoiced a month before the due date which allows them to pay through the online billing system.

Students will be assessed a late fee of $50 if payment is received after the due date. Students may not begin any class until the appropriate tuition has been paid. Late enrollment is occasionally permitted, depending upon space availability.

Note: Tuition and fees are subject to change. Candidates and students-in-training are given as much advance notice as possible of any changes.

Returned Checks Policy

All returned checks will be assessed a $50.00 returned check fee.

Housing and Transportation Costs

During their stay in Boulder, students typically rent rooms from community members at a cost of $400 - $600 per month. A local, private referral list is available to students upon enrollment. This housing referral list includes pertinent contact information, along with details on location and distance from The Rolf Institute.

Many of the living situations are within walking distance or a short bike ride or a short drive to The Rolf Institute. The bus system throughout Boulder and Denver is quiet convenient. A local bus route (#205) drops students off just a block away from the school. Click here for RTD (Regional Transportation District) website.
