- Consequently, while there is no deadline for applications, there is a definite advantage to applying early.
- An accepted student is given two weeks to pay the non-refundable first month of tuition by check or credit card, which holds their place in the program.
- The additional future monthly tuition payments will be coordinated with our office upon your arrival.
