Tuition
Tuition and housing fees for Summer 2018 are $3,500. This amount includes tuition, room and board, extracurricular activities, and class field trips.
(Note: Archaeology and Life Sciences students will be charged a $150 lab fee; Photography students will be charged a $125 lab fee; and Global Health, Research Computing, and Acting students will be charged a $100 lab fee in addition to tuition and housing.)
The tuition and housing cost balance (including any applicable lab fees) must be paid in full online or by check and received by the Office of Pre-College Programs by June 1, 2018.
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.
Enrollment Fee
A non-refundable enrollment fee of $300 must be submitted once a student has been notified of his or her acceptance to Summer Scholars. This enrollment fee must be paid no later than May 4, 2018 to secure a place for the student in the program. The enrollment fee will be applied to the total tuition/housing amount. Enrollment fees and tuition/housing payments are not refundable.

Financial Aid
Application fee waivers are granted rarely and only in extreme circumstances. Very limited need-based, partial scholarships are available to students who apply for the program. The Office of Pre-College Programs does not offer merit-based financial assistance or scholarships. The deadline for 2018 financial assistance requests is February 12, 2018. Please note that submitting a request for financial aid does not guarantee an application fee waiver or scholarship. Fee waiver decisions will be made on a weekly basis. Once a decision is made, you will be notified via email. Decisions regarding admission will be made regardless of financial aid request, and notification of financial aid will be included with admission decision letters.
The deadline for requesting financial aid has passed.
