Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- What does the fee cover?A nominal fee covers less than one third the costs of providing these high-quality academies, which include instruction from 彩神vlll争霸 Engineering faculty and students, lunch, and other expenses and materials. Generous donations from ConocoPhillips Alaska and MTA Foundation cover the remaining costs.
- I can't afford the fee. Should I still apply?Yes! We want all qualified students to be able to attend the academies, regardless of ability to pay.
- I'm a student in high school. Will these academies be challenging to me?Yes. There are a number of more advanced courses specifically targeted to high school students.
- How does the lottery system work?During the first week of March, applicants will be included in a randomized lottery selection process. Applicants will be notified by email to which academies they have been admitted after the lottery selection. Upon receipt of the admittance email, participants will be asked to complete the registration process by the enrollment deadline included in the email.
- What happens after the lottery?Upon completion of the lottery selection process, participants will receive a 鈥Confirmation of 彩神vlll争霸 SEA Admitted Academies鈥 email.
