Tuition & financial aid · Founding cohort 2027
An exceptional experience, made accessible for our founding families
Every admitted student in our 2027 in-person founding cohort pays founding cohort tuition (35–60% below regular rates), and financial need is considered. Tuition exists to make this learning possible, not to put opportunity out of reach.
No one pays full in-person tuition in year one.
The centerpiece
What you'll actually pay
In-person regular tuition reflects the true cost of small cohorts, mentorship, and a project-based program. For founding families, we invest alongside you so that cost doesn't become the barrier.

Our philosophy
Why we do this
Tuition covers the real cost of delivering Mosaic well: a low student-to-mentor ratio, staff who can give each learner real attention, materials for project-based work, and the support that turns curiosity into something tangible. We exist to give students an opportunity to grow - not to sell a premium product. Founding cohort tuition is how we invest in the families who help us build this school from the ground up.
