Before you apply

How to check costs, eligibility and dates

You are typically finishing grade 10 before this summer. Providers may use your grade when applying, your completed grade or your rising grade. Confirm their exact rule, age cutoff and prerequisites.

Each card shows what the program has published; open the official site for anything it leaves out. A date or price from an earlier year says so beside it, and format and location can change between cycles.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Does rising grade mean my grade when I apply?

Rising grade means the grade you will enter in fall 2027. Providers may instead use your current or completed grade. This page maps an explicitly current-grade range forward by one grade; otherwise it matches the listed range. Confirm the provider's exact rule before applying.

How should I compare program costs and formats?

Compare tuition, application fees, housing, meals and travel, then check whether attendance is online, on campus or hybrid. A free tuition offer may leave other expenses. A card shows only what the program has published; for anything it leaves out, open the official site.

Can a program pay to appear first?

No paid placements. Listings are ranked by fit, never by payment. By default, editor picks and programs whose official rules describe selective admission come first, and within each group the soonest 2027 deadline. You can sort by name, deadline or latest source check instead. Use the methodology page to understand catalog standards.

How do I save a program?

Open its catalog listing and sign in to save it to your plan. You can browse these pages and official program links without signing in.
