Purpose

The Journey is committed to fostering an inclusive educational environment where financial constraints are not a barrier to access. We believe in nurturing the potential of every student, regardless of their economic background. Based on our team's review of the student's application, they will offer a needs-based scholarship to cover up to 80% of the total tuition in exceptional circumstances. Amounts are determined based on your family's unique financial circumstances and your application to the program.
