Financial aid is available through The Campership Fund (TCF), an organization that supports individuals attending any Christian Science camp. To apply for funds, fill out TCF’s campership application. They can meet up to 75% of tuition costs (including program and stayover fees). If TCF awards less than what you request, the additional need is passed along to us – no need to fill out a separate A/U Ranches campership application.
