Frequently Asked Questions

  • We did not do Cotillion in 6th grade, but this says it’s a three-year program; can we still participate in 7th grade?

    Yes, your child can still participate. Our curriculum is designed for each level to build on the previous level. Each grade will review basic skills and then dive into grade specific skills and discussions. Click here to see how our curriculum builds each year.

  • My child participated in Cotillion in the 7th grade, what is the difference in 8th grade?

    The Cotillion curriculum tailored for our 8th grade students is one that reviews skills learned in previous Cotillion years, while learning advanced dining etiquette, dance, job interview skills and social skills needed in preparation for their transition into high school. Additionally, our 8th grade students enjoy a special VIP area at our final session during the dance. 

  • Is there a separate fee for the Dinner?

    No. Your Cotillion fees are all inclusive. They cover the venue, supplies, instructors and food.

  • Why is there a Dress Code?

    It is important for students to learn to interpret and adhere to dress codes for different occasions. Dress Codes ensure that everyone is at the same comfort level. Girls wear gloves during the dance lessons to honor Cotillion tradition and limit the spread of germs. We will enforce the dress code as outlined in the Cotillion Guidebook.

  • What if my child is absent or misses a session?

    We understand that there may be students who miss a session during the course of the season due to illness, family commitment, or other previous obligations. We do provide lesson recaps at the end of each session.

  • We would like to participate in Cotillion this year but it is not in our family budget. Is there any financial assistance offered?

    It is our desire for every Fellowship family to participate in Cotillion regardless of financial situation. If you are in need of assistance, please email fellowshipcotillion@gmail.com or follow this link. Your request will be handled confidentially.

  • What is your refund policy?

    Thank you for understanding our advance commitment to the venue and instructors. We are unable to issue refunds and/or partial credits for any reason.
