Every student receives a full-tuition scholarship funded by Mr. Webb himself, made possible by continuous support from alumni, parents, and corporations.

Although tuition is free, students must pay for additional expenses, like room and board, laptops/technology, books/supplies/software, transportation, and living expenses. Financial aid is available to eligible students to help cover these costs, as are a number of employment opportunities on campus.
