Pre-Service Program
Tuition & Fees
The Pre-Service program provides competitive pricing which makes it  an affordable program. Fees are to be paid in-full prior to attending program courses. Tuition covers all the courses in the cohort that the candidate has registered for only.
  • There is a nonrefundable application fee of $300.
  • Tuition* for the complete program is $1,000.
If an enrolled candidate drops out of the program and needs to reenroll, there will be a $125 charge to re-register into the program. In the case where a candidate fails a course or courses and need to re-take the course, there will be an additional charge of $150 per course.
​
​* Tuition is refundable only if candidate formally drops from the program two (2) weeks prior to the start of the first course. To formally drop from the program, please contact the program coordinator.

Payment Information

 All payments are to be made payable to LACOE - Beginning Teacher Programs (BTP) via credit/debit card only. BTP uses a third party -"Allpaid" platform - to make online credit/debit card payments. BTP currently incurs the "transaction fee" for candidate payments. **Therefore, the transaction is a free service to all BTP candidate payments. 

**Please keep in mind that the "transaction fee," although presently a free service provided by BTP to candidates, may be subject to change as BTP finds it necessary. 

There is a non-refundable transaction fee of 2.5%, even if the payment to which it relates is canceled, refunded, credited, or charged back.  **The only exception to this policy is if BTP receives written notification immediately after the transaction is initiated and within a two (2) hour period after the payment is made.

Once you fill out the form, you will be emailed in 24 hours or less directions on how to enter your payment information.
