How classes are formed:

When all registrations forms and payments are turned in, we match students by age, ability, days and timeframe that you requested. This is a time consuming process but it gives you control over the days and times you want or need.

Approx. 1 week before the session starts, a tentative schedule will be emailed for your review. This is the last opportunity you have to make any changes. We try hard to accommodate changes if we can. So please write correct days and timeframes on your form. A final schedule will be emailed by the weekend before the session starts. Changes cannot be made at this time.

Registration Due dates

We only accept registrations no more than 3.5 weeks before each session starts. No registrations accepted before that please. Late registrations, less than a week before the session starts, get left over times or placed on a waiting list. You will not get a tentative schedule to review, but will be emailed a final schedule.

Waitlist

In our busy swim season, April to Oct M to Th 3-6pm, we have a waiting list that you are placed on until a spot becomes available for the days and timeframe you request. We will not cash checks until you secure a spot to your liking. The more day and timeframe options you give us the better opportunity you have to get a spot. so if you can, try to work outside these hours if a spot is not available. The first time you register it is best to pay with a check to DPAC that we will hold until a spot opens for you. We will never keep your payment if we cannot find you a suitable class.

Renewals

Have priority of days and times and payments are due no less than 2 weeks prior to the new session starting or you may lose your spot. We require a written renewal form if you need to change your days and times or pay with cash. Otherwise you will be rolled over into the same days and timeframe as your original form said.

Payments

Full payments are required with the forms to be worked into the schedule. Zelle to alohaswimming@gmail.com Check to Dana Point Aquatics Cash in an envelope with the forms or renewal notice

We will never keep your payment if we cannot find you the time frame on the days that you requested on the registration form. We will ask or offer you options if those times are not available before we cash your check.
