Program Costs
All applicants must submit a nonrefundable $45 application fee that is not applied to the tuition amount. A nonrefundable enrollment deposit of $250 must be submitted once a student has been notified of his or her acceptance to Summer Scholars. This enrollment deposit must be received, postmarked by May 15, 2010, to secure a place for the student in the program. The enrollment deposit will be applied to the total tuition amount. Tuition payments are non-refundable.
Tuition/Housing
Tuition and housing costs combined amount to $2,500. This amount includes room and board, as well as extracurricular activities and class field trips. (Note: Life Science track students will be charged a $150 lab fee, in addition to tuition and housing.) The tuition and housing cost balance must be paid in full and received, by the Office of Pre-College Programs postmarked by June 15, 2010.
Please make all checks payable to the University of Notre Dame. Sorry, credit cards may not be used.
A note for South Bend area students: Campus residency is an important aspect of every college student’s life, and it is an essential component of the Notre Dame experience. All Summer Scholars participants are required to live in one of Notre Dame’s residence halls.
