Pricing

$400k in financial assistance is available based on each student’s financial need. Limited funds are available.

How are applications evaluated?

Financial assistance is evaluated by a panel and distributed based on need. Please be as honest as you can about your particular situation so we can best serve your family. We do our best to offer at least something for everyone. Please don’t hesitate to apply. Once you have reserved your seat, you are eligible to apply for financial assistance.

Generous donors contribute financial assistance funds making them available to qualified Student Conference registrants. Financial assistance applicants are considered according to their financial ability, as well as any other extenuating circumstances which have caused their family financial hardship.

Process

The amount of financial assistance awarded is based on demonstrated need. Need is determined by an assessment of confidential financial information the family submits through the financial assistance application process. If a family is awarded financial assistance, the funds are applied only towards tuition. All financial information, application information, and documents are kept in confidence and will not be shared outside of Summit. Summit expects that each recipient will also keep the amount of their award private and confidential.

Awards are not given for academic, athletic, or artistic merit, nor are student loans or full tuition awards available. The Financial Assistance Committee reviews requests 1-3 times a week depending on the number of applicants and sends an email to the student and their parents as soon as a decision has been made.

Applications are considered in the order they are received, with the goal of providing answers to all applicants within 3-5 business days. Please note: If your registration is paid in full, no tuition assistance will be available. Additionally, a financial aid award does not secure a spot for students. That can only be done by paying the $195 deposit.
