A $200 non-refundable deposit is due with the registration form.
The balance of the tuition is due on June 5th.
This deposit is returned if the program is full.
The Institute is held on the campus of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.
We are working with the University of Minnesota to provide apartment-style dormitory housing on and/or near campus will be available to us this year. Let us know if you are interested in this option. (Approximate cost is $70/night for a single room.)
