Explanation of Costs
The SolBridge academic year consists of two Assessment Periods of a fifteen-week semester followed by a six-week study term and then a five week study break. Students are expected to stay at SolBridge during each full Assessment Period and may stay during the summer and winter five-week study breaks if they wish to participate in Internships, academic programs or for personal reasons. Apart from tuition, students must provide for the expense of dormitory, meals, health insurance, dormitory security deposit, and personal expenses, without exception.
