Micro-Academy Enrollment + Membership

People are ultimately what make an experience worthwhile. We are 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.

We realize that our tuition—which is set to be on par with other high-quality experiences, and to allow us to compensate people fairly for the value they bring to the table—may be out of reach for some families. We rely on grant funding to help us bridge those gaps when they arise, so that (ideally) that should not be an insurmountable barrier for candidates for whom this program is otherwise a great fit (and vice versa).

Tuition for Spring 2023:

The suggested tuition is as follows: 

Spring 2023 term (January 3 to May 25, 2023, with spring break the week of April 17): $3,950 (prorated if joining after the term is underway)

Sibling discount: 10% 

Fall 2023 term (September 19 to December 14, 2023): $2,340 if enrolling by June 30, or $2,600 if enrolling after June 30

Full-year enrollment discount: A discount of 10% will be applied to the 2024 spring term's tuition (regular rate $3,950) if families enroll in both fall and spring terms simultaneously. (The spring term is significantly longer than the fall term, and will run from January 2 to May 23, 2024.)

Sibling discount: 10% 

Payment plans and financial assistance: The tuition can be split up into installments upon request. If the tuition still remains out of reach, please do inquire about the availability of grant funding.

What's included:

• Enrollment in the micro-academy on Tuesdays and Thursdays
• Membership in The Hub, whose benefits include access to The Hub's social networks; curated resources; priority registration for à-la-carte programming; and wraparound services

What's not included:

• Enrollment in à-la-carte programming (as described here)
• In-depth consulting 

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'll 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 will be a one-month, no-obligation trial period.  In the unlikely event that, for whatever reason, the program turns out not to be a good fit for an enrolled child (or vice versa) during that time, un-enrollment will be permitted, and the remainder of the term's tuition will be refunded.

How to Apply:

The application process is straightforward. We encourage all interested applicants to participate in one of our open-house mini-sessions, if possible (upcoming dates and registration links can be found here), as these are often the best way for both parties to gauge the fit. If attending an open house is not practical, please 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, will be placed on the waitlist and invited to enroll as space becomes available (currently enrolled families receive priority for subsequent term enrollments). 

À-La-Carte Program Enrollment

The à-la-carte programming section (described in more detail here) includes enrollment information for individual program elements.
