Sliding Scale Pricing

IPEC follows a sliding scale pricing model provided by Embracing Equity, Tier 4 being the most affordable, Tier 1 providing the opportunity to pay it forward and contribute to the scholarship fundings. Trusting in the self-selection process, and providing with limited slots in each tier, IPEC will not require or request proof of income.​

​

A guide to Embracing Equity's sliding scale can be found at the bottom of this page.
