Financial Aid
Center for Talent Development (CTD) aims to ensure that the Summer Program is accessible to students who wish to attend, regardless of financial circumstances.
All applicants seeking financial aid should consider the following three strategies:
Apply for Financial Aid from CTD
CTD offers a limited amount of need-based financial aid, and it is awarded on a rolling basis beginning in January 2009. For students enrolling in technology courses, two scholarship opportunities exist.
Seek reimbursement through a Flexible Spending Account
Parents with Flexible Spending Accounts may choose to take advantage of the tuition reimbursement option. Contact us to obtain CTD’s tax identification number and for assistance with any other paperwork necessary for tuition reimbursement through a Flexible Spending Account.
Consider the Payment Plan
A five-month payment plan is available to students in the Apogee program. To utilize the payment plan, complete the Payment Plan Application and include it with the Application for Admission.
The amount covered by the plan is equal to the tuition and fees less the application fee, tuition deposit and any financial aid received.
Families choosing the payment plan option who do not apply for financial aid, or apply for but do not receive financial aid, are assessed a service charge of $50 for the plan. Families of students receiving financial aid will not be assessed a service charge for using the payment plan.
The first payment is due when the applicant is notified of acceptance to the program. Subsequent payments are due on the last day of each month following the applicant’s acceptance. Payments must be made with a check or money order. If the applicant is accepted into the program, an agreement and monthly coupons will be prepared and sent with the acceptance packet.

- Aid awards are based on family income and extenuating circumstances (e.g., loss of job, unforeseen medical expenses, etc.). Most families awarded aid have a total household income of less than $50,000.
- Financial aid is awarded for no more than one session (Apogee, Spectrum, Equinox) per child.
- To be considered for financial aid, families must complete the Financial Aid Application. All requested materials (tax information, statement of need, etc.) must be included in the financial aid submission in order for a Financial Aid Application to be considered.
- The amount of financial aid granted and the balance due are reflected on an invoice included in the acceptance packet. Any outstanding balance must be paid by June 1, 2009, unless arrangements have been made with CTD for a payment plan.
