Tuition and Fellowships

  • The total tuition cost of the NTR program is $6,000 plus additional fees for textbooks and materials. Tuition is payable by semester in two equal payments of $3,000 and covers only the coursework specifically included in the NTR program.

    NTR offers fellowships to all accepted candidates in the amount of $5,400. Candidates who accept the fellowship work as part-time classroom aides in the schools where they are placed during the academic year. Candidates who accept the fellowship will make an initial tuition payment of $600, and will have all other tuition costs covered by the fellowship.
     
    NTR also offers a Developing Leader Fellowship (DLF). The DLF is awarded annually to a NTR candidate whose application demonstrates a commitment to the district's goal of "narrowing the achievement gap with respect to race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status and supporting the social and emotional growth of our students."
