Students who have completed one year of high school and have not yet graduated, have successfully taken the PSAT and/or rank in the top half of the class, are eligible to apply. The two-week academy is $1,825 and includes tuition, room, board, books, and all associated activity fees and material costs. Need-based financial aid up to $900 is available.
