Total Program Cost = $13,150
Work Study Credit = $4,300
This is half of the room & board cost. This credit is given to all Rooted students. At Rooted we value learning and believe that much learning comes from working. As mentioned earlier, as a way to keep the cost of tuition down and also provide opportunities to serve and grow as leaders, participants will be partnering with different service teams at Tuscarora.
Total Payment (including a $1000 non-refundable deposit) = $8,850
Ways to bring the cost of Rooted down even further…
- We do not require it, but strongly encourage and recommend that all Rooted graduates stay on through the following summer to work in a leadership internship at Tuscarora. This is a paid position that will also help to bring down the overall cost of the program. Participants in this program will be in charge or the summer staff at Tuscarora and help lead one of the core teams. The program goes from the third week of June through the third week of August (will an opportunity to stay through Labor Day for those who are able). Participants in this internship will earn between $2,500-3,500 depending upon how long you are able to stay.
- Also, as stated earlier, there will be opportunities to work open shifts at Tuscarora during the week and especially on the weekends, which you can sign up for and will be paid for.
- Final, scholarships will be available to help offset the cost of Rooted for those who apply for them.
