Because of our mission, student's family must be financially eligible. A copy of the most recent tax return (2023), W-2, or any state/federal aid documents must be submitted. If you do not file taxes, you must submit an employment letter and any aid documents to show all income earned in the last calendar year. No family is turned away because of financial need but you must qualify under our network guidelines to attend. Please see the graph below in order to determine if you qualify.
