Curriculum & special classes
The Lab program delivers strong academics, effective social-emotional learning, and a deep appreciation for diversity, building intentionally as students progress through four divisions. It is a rigorous, discussion-based curriculum that engages students in hands-on activities and real-world applications, preparing graduates to actively engage in a democratic society.
Financial aid
Lab strives to make its educational program affordable for as many families as possible, awarding over $7 million in need-based financial aid with no loans. Families who wish to apply for financial aid must do so in tandem with the school admissions process, and University of Chicago affiliated employees may be eligible for a tuition remission benefit.
