About our Tuition Assistance Program

Most classes already offer sliding scale prices. Assistance for classes is based on the middle tier.
We choose recipients by financial need. Records are not required, but please give accurate information.
Funding is limited, and awards vary in amount and may not cover the whole fee.

Awards are for a specific session and cannot be transferred or deferred.
An award does not hold your spot: register as usual.
We evaluate every applicant without regard to race, religion, national origin, sex or physical ability.
