Tuition for the 2023-24 Saturday Enrichment program is $250 for each course, plus a non-refundable $25 registration fee per course. Tuition and fees are due no later than five days after acceptance into a class, but no later than the day before classes start each session. Our refund policy is described below.

Robinson Center Saturday Program Refund Policy

 Only students withdrawing for extenuating circumstances beyond their control may be eligible for an emergency withdrawal. If you believe that your child falls into this category, please contact us by email at rcenrich@uw.edu immediately to request a withdrawal and pro-rated refund. You may withdraw by written (email) request only. A full refund will be made if the class is canceled by the Robinson Center.

Tuition and Fee Waivers

Tuition and fee waivers may be awarded to families who are eligible for the federal free or reduced school lunch program. As a result of the pandemic, our financial aid funds are more limited than in the past. We will give financial aid to all eligible families, on a first-come first-served basis, until our financial aid funds for Saturday classes are exhausted.

The Seattle Public Schools website lists the federal income eligibility guidelines for free and reduced lunch here.

To demonstrate eligibility for financial aid, you must submit ONE of the following:

  • Documentation of eligibility for the free/reduced lunch program for the 2023-24 school year;
  • Copy of the first page of your 2022 1040-tax form showing your income;
  • Evidence of current participation in Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF);
  • Evidence of receipt of current Basic Food/SNAP benefits;
  • Participation in the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR);
  • Documentation that the student is currently in the foster care system.

NOTE: We are not able to provide tuition assistance for students residing outside of Washington State.

Documents must be submitted through the ‘Make a Payment’ page of your Robinson Center account. Providing this information will not disadvantage you. Please note that when you apply for financial aid, you will be prompted to complete the release forms required for our program before you can upload your documentation.

It is understood that this information will be used only in computing the amount of financial assistance for which the student may qualify, and that it will not be released to any other party.
