Tuition and Fees

A non-refundable application fee of $40 is required to apply. 

Tuition for the three-week workshop is $1,880; undergraduate credit is available at no additional charge.  The workshop may also be taken for three semester hours of graduate level credit for $2,230.  Room and board is available on campus for $1,092.  Room without board is not available.  Students from the local area are welcome to commute.

Tuition and fees are due 30 days after acceptance; invoices will be mailed from the college's Bursar. Late applicants must pay before the program's start date.

Refund Policy

Application fees will not be refunded.

Because faculty and staff salary commitments must be made in advance and the costs of plant operations are fixed, the College must follow a very limited refund policy.  Details of this policy as it relates to tuition, room, and board follow.  Appeals for refunds due to extenuating circumstances may be made in writing to the Program Director or the Dean of Special Programs.

If Skidmore College cancels a program all fees will be refunded.
