Spring 2014 Registration Procedure

• Online enrollment begins at 6 p.m. on Nov. 12, 2013
• 450 children (ages 9-12) will be accepted into the program
• Those accepted will represent a geographically diverse area.
• Registration is on a “first-come, first-served” basis that is open to children satisfying the age restriction, regardless of place of residence or academic achievements. A waiting list will be available after registration is full for a county or for the program.

Registration Fee
In order to keep up with the costs of providing a quality program, there will be a registration fee of $100.00 per child, payable upon registration (no refunds). The registration fee must be paid by check; further directions will be given at the time of enrollment. Parents have an option to apply for a scholarship for your child at the time you register online. If you have any questions regarding the scholarship please contact Dr. Kristy Collins at kdivitto@vbi.vt.edu. Lunch cards and a KTU t-shirt will be given to all children who attend KTU.
