Micro-Academy Enrollment + Membership
We have rolling admissions, as long as there's space available and it's still practical to integrate newcomers into the current term's group project (which is usually chosen several weeks into the term). Additional details about the cohort logistics and the micro-academy format can be found on our Program page.
People are ultimately what make an experience worthwhile. We're looking to bring on board families that resonate with The Hub’s values and vision; see the potential of learning to be a collaborative and enjoyable journey; and want to be part of a new paradigm for learning that offers both customization and community.
We realize that our tuition—which is set to be on par with other high-quality, personalized experiences, and to allow us to compensate facilitators fairly for the value they bring to the table—may be out of reach for some families. We therefore have funds available for scholarships to bridge those gaps when they arise; please do inquire if the cost is the only obstacle to participation.

Additional details
Tuition is pro-rated if joining partway through the term. Payments can be split up into installments upon request. If the tuition still remains out of reach, we encourage families to inquire about the availability of scholarships.
What's included:
What's not included:
Everyone will get the most out of the experience if there's a healthy group dynamic and all participants want to be there, so we do our best to make sure the program is a good fit all around before someone new comes on board. As an extra measure, there is a 30-day, no-further-obligation trial period. In the unlikely event that, for whatever reason, the program turns out not to be a good fit for an enrolled young person (or vice versa) during that time, unenrollment is permitted, and the remainder of the term's tuition is refunded.
How to Apply:
The application process is straightforward. Interested applicants can attend one of our open-house mini-sessions (upcoming dates and registration links can be found here), or request an individual meeting by filling out our contact form, briefly explaining your child's learning journey up to now, and why you believe The Hub would be a good fit going forward. Applicants that seem like a good fit for the program, on the basis of an open house or individual meeting, are invited to enroll as space becomes available, either in the term that's currently underway (if practical) or in the following term (currently enrolled families receive priority for subsequent term enrollments).
