What changes your price
- Your city. Centers in high cost cities charge more.
- Visits a month. Plans with more sessions cost more.
- Contract length. Some centers ask for a set number of months. Longer plans may cost less per month.
- Fees. An enrollment and assessment fee is due at the start.
- Special courses. Test prep or summer programs are priced on their own.
What a year of Mathnasium really costs
The Pricer works out that a $549 monthly membership plus a $199 fee comes to $6,787 in the first year. At the more common $300 to $350 a month, a school year is still a few thousand dollars.
Missed visits raise your real price. The Pricer shows that a family paying $449 but going only six times in a month pays about $74.83 per visit. So plan on using the sessions you pay for.
Cuemath says some centers ask for a minimum commitment of several months, and each center sets its own rules on holds and cancellations. Mathnasium itself says pricing varies by location and tells families to ask their local center.
Summer and special courses are priced on their own. Tutors.com puts a Mathnasium summer program at about $425 for eight sessions, or $1,100 or more for unlimited visits. Brighterly reports one center in Westwood charging $449 a month for 10 sessions, and $799 for a 16 session Foundations course. Some centers also charge $100 to $175 for the first assessment and enrollment.

Mathnasium compared with Kumon and Sylvan
Kumon charges per subject and costs less per month. Our Kumon cost page puts it at $140 to $200 a month for one subject. Kumon is mostly worksheets at home, with short visits to the center.
Sylvan charges by the hour, often $50 to $55. See our Sylvan Learning cost page. Mathnasium sits between the two: math only, in small groups at the center, for a flat monthly fee.
