At BCI, we are committed to maintaining a unique experience that is financially accessible to all Jewish young-adults who wish to participate. Due to the incredible generosity of our supporters and of Marilyn and Sigi Ziering, BCI is offering the 10-Day BCI Experience on a sliding tuition scale of $300 – $3,000. The tuition fee covers meals, housing, staffing resources, and all program-related expenses for the full duration of the program.
The actual cost to deliver the 10-Day BCI Experience is $3,000 per participant. To deliver the program, 90% of the cost is raised from foundations and individual contributions. We honor and acknowledge that participants come from a range of backgrounds. To consider how much you and/or your family can contribute to the costs for your participation in the program, we ask that you consider the following chart to guide your level of financial obligation. We trust that you will select a level that is meaningful to you and your family.
We never want financial resources to be a barrier to participation. If you have any concerns or questions about payment, or feel unsure about how much to pay, please feel free to reach out to Rabbi Myra Meskin, BCI Director at bci [at] aju.edu, who can talk it through with you.
We look forward to having you join us for the BCI 10 Day experience and hope that this fee structure will make it easier for you to join us this summer.
