Taxidermy Schools; Tuition Information for Taxidermy School Students.

Habitat supplies included will be premium quality materials for artificial rocks, water, icicles, snow, splashes, plants, and our trade secret freeform base sculpting material. The six week course will also include materials for one glass habitat case!

You will also be provided with business forms that we have developed specifically for the use of commercial taxidermists who wish to have a simple, time saving method of record keeping.

And last but not least, your tuition will also entitle you to your own free page on this website, once you graduate. This is a new addition to our training package, and we look forward to our graduates taking full advantage of it!

Six-Day Economy Course Incentives: For those of you who attend more than one of our Economy Courses in succession, you will receive $100 off each additional week. For example, if you attend two of our six-day courses, you will receive $100 off the second week. If you attend three of our six-day courses, you will receive $100 off for both the second and third weeks, for a total of $200 off.

Veteran's Benefits:
It is a common misconception among veterans that the GI Bill will pay for their entire taxidermy schooling. Most veterans however, will simply receive a monthly allotment check while attending our full course. Since the course is six weeks, this will amount to 1 1/2 times your monthly amount. Only veterans who have been discharged with a service related disability may be eligible to have their entire training paid for. Please contact us if you have further questions concerning your Veterans Benefits.

Please see our Schedule Page for dates our courses are offered.

Included Specimens

All specimens are included in your tuition. For the gamehead requirements, two whitetail will be provided. For those of you who live in antelope or mule deer country, we may have those available also. For the rug and lifesize mammal requirement, specimens are usually raccoon, bobcat, fox, mink, or coyote. Students will not have to do the same mammal for both the rug and lifesize. Birds provided will be one rooster pheasant and one drake mallard. Fish will include a trout for the cold water specimen, a bass or pike for the warm water specimen, and a fiberglass reproduction, for a total of three fish mounts.
Because of the advanced nature of our course, we only use top quality specimens. Most taxidermy competition judges will agree that inferior specimens do not encourage the highest scores. If you would like to provide any of your own specimens, please contact us ahead of time so you can send your specimen to us for pre-approval. If approved, you will receive the appropriate credit towards your tuition.

Refunds

Deposit Refunds: In order to reduce cancellations, all deposits are nonrefundable. We realize emergencies may arise however, and have policies (explained on our FAQS page), for crediting your deposit to another class. We encourage you to be certain you are able to attend our course before sending in your enrollment application and deposit.
Tuition Refunds: *In the event a student is unable to complete a class, the tuition refund will be pro-rated according to the date of cancellation, minus the deposit amount, and the amount of supplies used. The date of cancellation will be the day ATTC receives written notice that the student can no longer attend the course. No refund will be issued to students who complete at least 2 weeks (33%) of the class.
*For veterans, ATTC agrees to implement the refund policy as stated in DVA Regulation 21.4255.
