What is the cost of each summer institute?
The noncredit registration fee for 2020 summer institutes is $850 ($800 plus a $50 materials fee) per person, per institute.
Included in all registration fees is a $75 non-refundable application and processing fee. Accepted applicants who withdraw before the deadline will be charged this fee.
Those who withdraw after the deadline will be charged the entire institute fee. Payment is not due until an applicant has been accepted.
How can I pay for a summer institute?
The institutes may be paid for by credit card, debit card or purchase order. Payment is due within 14 days of notification of your acceptance. Before the payment deadline expires you will receive a reminder message. Requests for time extensions will be considered on a case-by-case basis. While we try to make accommodations whenever necessary, we reserve the right to withdraw applications if payment has not been made on time.
The 14-day payment deadline does not apply to graduate credit applicants, as payment is due directly to Teachers College. Students of Teachers College will find the course numbers available for summer classes under the class directory. Please note that registration will be available via the TC Portal beginning April 29. Non-Teachers College students (upon acceptance) will need to complete the non-degree application found below and will be able to register via registration tools beginning April 30.
Can I be invoiced for the institute?
We invoice after the completion of the institute. If you need a quote to provide to your school or district, please see below:

I am still getting emails that I have not paid for the institutes, but I think my payment was submitted. How do I check that my payment was received?
It is the applicant’s responsibility to communicate with their school or district business office to make sure that payment is submitted. If you are getting Payment Due Reminder emails, this means we have not yet received your payment or purchase order. Purchase orders must be uploaded via your member dashboard. We do not accept POs via email.
If you know your payment was uploaded, please sit tight as we are processing purchase orders as quickly as possible. There may be a lag time of 2-3 days from when your purchase order was uploaded to when payment will be applied to your application. You will receive an email when payment is processed. If you do not receive your confirmation email within the same business day please call 212-678-3104.
