Dates, Tuition, and Application Information
Scroll down to learn about term dates and tuition for The Hub's micro-academy, as well as information about how to apply.
We have rolling admissions (as long as there's space available in a cohort, and it's still practical to integrate newcomers into group projects that may be underway).

Sibling Discount and Tuition Assistance
Sibling discount
10% for second, third, etc., siblings (applies across cohorts).
Tuition assistance
Our tuition reflects The Hub's premium, personalized experience, with its exceptionally low student-to-facilitator ratio, and ensures fair compensation for our facilitators. We understand that the full tuition may stretch some budgets, so we offer flexible payment plans (by term or by month). Limited scholarships are also available through a quick, private application process. The Hub is also an approved vendor for state education funds in AZ, NH, UT, and WV, helping families access additional support.
30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee
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. A good all-around fit and a good group dynamic are of paramount importance, so we meet with all prospective participants; those who seem like they would fit in well in one of our cohorts are invited to enroll.
If you think the program might be a good fit for your tween or teen, we invite you to engage with us in one of the following ways, so that all parties can confirm the fit:
- Attend an open house. These are listed on the Events page and feature a brief overview and Q&A (for anyone), followed by a "sample mini-session" (specifically for children ages 11-14).
- Schedule an individual meeting. If you would like to move forward sooner; have a child younger than 11 or older than 14; or you'd simply prefer to meet separately for any other reason, contact us to schedule an individual meeting.
There is no set deadline, because we offer rolling admissions (when practical).
