Our Non-Profit Pricing Model
As a brand of the non-profit organization Barrier Breakers®, Inc., we offer sliding scale pricing for applicants who reflect our mission.
​
What does this mean? Our mission is to increase access to and success in higher education for BIPOC and other marginalized students; as such we have a sliding scale for students who fall into one of those categories and/or demonstrate great financial need. The tables below represent the discounts that we offer for these groups. When you sign up to work with us, you will automatically be redirected to a payment page with your discount applied.
​
We work with all students, however, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or ability to pay! If you are not eligible for a scholarship, you may pay in full or use a payment plan.
Scholarships are not stackable. You are eligible for the highest discount for which you qualify.
For example, if you are a first-generation law student (10% off) and have an LSAC Fee-Waiver, you are eligible for 75% off of our services.
*Seats are filled for LSAC Fee Waiver Holders until the fall. You are welcome to still use the registration form to join our waitlist or register with our Mission-Based pricing at 10% off. Additionally, Fee Waiver Holders get access to our 12-week boot camps for just $400 while seats last.
