Tuition
The cost of the program is $14,000 a year. This amount includes tuition, room, and board. There is an additional charge of $200 annually to cover outside yeshiva events and travel (such as annual trips to Northern Israel, to Masada, and to Ein Gedi, as well as numerous other group activities).
Outside of the program, other expenses may include round-trip air-fare, medical insurance (a popular plan starts at about $1 a day), primary books ($50-$100), laundry, and spending money. Students wishing to utilize internet access or the American phone lines are charged nominal annual fees.

Famous quotes containing the word tuition:
“Miss C_____ is ... remarkably neat in her person and is uncommonly diligent in every part of useful economy.... She hath indeed under her father’s tuition acquired ... a large share of real learning of almost all the living and dead languages. Nor was the leisure which she found for such acquirements produced by neglecting anything necessary or useful for the family, but by the most assiduous industry.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“You send your child to the schoolmaster, but ‘tis the schoolboys who educate him. You send him to the Latin class, but much of his tuition comes, on his way to school, from the shop- windows.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
