Fee Waivers

Students with financial need may request a 50% fee waiver for their orientation session cost. Waivers are granted for students only – not for family members and/or guests. Waivers do not include fees for family/guest housing, meals or T-shirts.

To request a partial fee waiver, submit a letter from an official (a counselor or financial aid officer) at your current school, which certifies that paying the full program fee would cause financial hardship. Your reservation payment will be subject to verification. Upon verification, the waiver will be included on your reservation. Verification and posting of the waiver can take up to 10 business days. Students who have made a reservation and paid the full balance will be refunded 50% of the session cost. 

Students may submit fee waiver requests through one of the following methods:

Fee waivers must be received 24 hours prior to the start of your session. To confirm receipt of the fee waiver request, please contact Orientation Programs at 213.740.7767.
