How It Works

Your student will be matched with a primary mentor and meet weekly for 1.5 hours. They will have two secondary mentors, whose feedback will be communicated through the primary mentor. For guardians, short written updates will be provided, and primary mentors will be available for a check-in on a regular basis.

We enroll students on a quarterly basis (12 sessions over a 3 month quarter) with prorated prices. We typically only enroll students for the following quarter, but may be able to begin with you and your student in the middle of a quarter depending on mentor availability. Our 2026 calendar is:

  • Winter: January 5 to March 30

  • Spring: April 6 to June 29

  • Summer: July 6 to September 28

  • Fall: October 5 to December 28

We use a sliding scale pricing model, which ranges from $2,700 to $5,400 per quarter. As a needs-conscious organization, we aim to meet our students at a price point that is accessible to them and their families. Details about our sliding scale can be found here.

We share our price upfront to make it easy for you to assess whether this is the right fit for you and your family. We highly recommend booking a free consultation. That is the best way to get a sense of who we are and what we can offer your student.
