How much does it cost?*
*You choose... really,
we mean it!
Our voluntary three-tier tuition recognizes that some families can pay the full cost of the program, while others would be more comfortable paying less. Families may choose the tuition amount that is most suitable for them. No questions asked. Regardless what amount you choose, the amenities, activities, and experiences are the same.
- $900
(discounted rate for those who choose to pay less)
- $1,200
(partially discounted rate for those who choose to pay a little more)
- $1,500
(most closely reflects the full cost of the program)

What does tuition cover?
What if I have private financial assistance to help with the cost of tuition?
We've had several students attend the program who had sponsors from their home communities help with the cost of tuition. We encourage students to engage their local community (school, community/civic organizations (rotary, Kiwanis), church, family and friends). Connecting with local resources is a valuable tool for funding Life Launch and beyond. We will work closely with you and any sponsors to support private assistance. Contact us to make arrangements before completing registration.
What else do I need to know?
Deposit: A minimum $500.00 deposit for tuition is required at registration
(there is NO COST to apply)
. You may also choose to pay the full tuition amount. If you choose to pay the minimum deposit, then the remaining tuition amount will be due by May 1.
