Instrument Rental

CMC offers discount instrument rentals for most instruments.

How to rent an instrument

CMC only rents instruments to students currently enrolled at CMC.  Mission Branch students should notify the registrar that they will be renting an instrument when they have their registration appointment, and their teacher will help them pick out an instrument on the first day of class.  Richmond Branch and off-site students will need to make a separate registration appointment with the Mission Branch Registrar to pick up an instrument.

Rental Fees: One-time deposit of $100, plus a Quarterly fee of $40 for an instrument and case
