Center for Talent Development (CTD) tuition and fees vary by the type and length of the program. View general tuition information below. Course specific fees, including any supply or lab fees, are listed on course description cards in the Explore Courses tool.
Fee: $75 per test
The total cost for a student to participate in NUMATS consists of two fees paid during a one-step** registration process: the test fee and the NUMATS fee. The test fee payment is sent by NUMATS to the appropriate testing agency. The NUMATS fee covers registration processing and access to CTD's online MyCTD Toolbox, which provides a variety of resources including follow-up materials that help you interpret your child’s test scores.
**Students age 13 or older registering for the ACT or students in grade 9 registering for SAT must do so in a two-step process. After completing and paying for the NUMATS portion of your registration, you will receive an e-mail with additional instructions for registering for the test directly with ACT or SAT.
