Discount policy: A 10% discount will be applied to each student’s tuition (and your school’s contribution, if any) when two or more teachers from one school are enrolled in any Sunbridge program at the same time during one academic year. We also offer 10% discounts for tuition paid with CAD (combinable, when appropriate, with our “volume” discount). Please note that discounts are applied after any financial aid has been awarded.
Sunbridge Third-Year Grant:Â
- This grant, valued at $1,000, is reserved for graduating students who have attended the entirety of the 25-month WETE program at Sunbridge. The grant amount will be prorated for transfer and Completion Track students.
- Students receive half the grant credited to their last tuition payment.
- The remaining half is sent as a check after commencement. If any assignments/fieldwork are still outstanding, this check will be sent once the work is completed, as long as that completion happens within 12 months of your original graduation date. If not, the remaining half will be forfeited.
- Contact [email protected] for full details
Books: Books are purchased independently; the program’s estimated total for book expenses is $400.
Billing & Payment: You will be billed before each term, with payment due no later than one week prior to the start of that term.
