At The Knowledge Society (TKS), we are committed to making our innovative education accessible to curious and ambitious young people, regardless of their financial situation.
The TKS program has been recognized as a School of the Future thanks to the high-calibre team we have working with our students. 80% of student tuition goes towards our exceptional team, who bring years of skills, experiences and knowledge to prepare the leaders of tomorrow. We recognize that the program tuition may not be feasible for all students. TKS has a strong history of providing tuition support to students and their families to ensure that no student is unable to attend TKS due to financial barriers.
The purpose of this document is to help readers understand why TKS offers Tuition Support, who we offer it to and the process to apply.
