Cost Overview
ATS is a nonprofit, self-supporting program which receives no federal or state funding. For Summer 2012, course fees range from $138 to $419 depending upon the length of the course. Financial aid is available for summer classes.
Supervision
ATS provides supervision during class time only. ATS staff do not escort students to and from class. Students are expected to be responsible, independent individuals and find their own way to class and around campus. If students are not ready for this level of independence, they should wait an additional summer before applying to ATS classes.
