Program Information

Week 2: July 22-26
Time:
Morning sessions run M-F from 9 am-12 pm.
Afternoon sessions run M-F from 1 pm-4 pm.
Families can choose from one to four courses over the two weeks. We offer an am session AND pm session for each week. This allows families to enroll for both an am AND pm class to create a whole day OR just one class for a half-day.
Lunch Options
A supervised lunch buffet lunch is available for purchase for full day participants at registration. Participants may also bring a nut-free lunch.
Wait List
If a desired course is full, you can choose to be added to a wait list in the store. If a space becomes available all participants on the waitlist will be notified via email. Sign ups are first come first serve. However, please keep in mind that seats rarely open up and it is generally better to sign up for another one of our engaging courses in that time slot to ensure placement within the program.
Refund Policy
If the program is canceled due to university decision all participants will receive a full refund.
For those who register between registration opening through April 30th:
As families often need to make decisions about summer programs very early in the year to schedule the busy summer months and to ensure placement in our fastest selling courses, we understand that sometimes plans change. So that you feel confident paying tuition in the winter and spring for a July program, the Maryville Summer Science and Robotics Program offers a 100% refund policy for courses until April 30th.
However, in order to maintain small class sizes, we offer limited placements in each class and most of our classes sell out by spring. When you pay tuition for a class in our program, you reserve a placement for your child that no one else can purchase. By May, many families have made summer plans and we are often unable to resell placements. Therefore, unless we have a child on the course waiting list that takes your child’s place, we can only offer a 50% refund from May 1 through June 15 and are unable to offer refunds June 16 and afterward except in extreme cases such as a death in the family or medical emergency.
Late registrant policy:
For those who register on May 1 or after, we offer a 100% refund through June 15 and a 50% refund through the onset of the program. For those who register after June 15, we offer a 100% refund through the onset of the program.
