The EYSO Difference
EYSO offers unparalleled performance opportunities combined with a comprehensive learning environment through rigorous methods of inquiry and “expert noticing.” EYSO prepares students for a lifelong journey of inquiry, creativity, and growth.
Serving students in grade four through college, EYSO comprises nearly 300 students from more than 70 communities in the Chicago area.

Tuition
EYSO is able to keep tuition low due to the fundraising efforts of our Board of Directors and member families, as well as the generosity of sponsors and grant-making organizations. Student tuition accounts for only about one-third the cost of participation.
By aiming to keep tuition affordable, EYSO strives to ensure that no student is turned away due to financial need. Tuition assistance applications are available after auditions, during the online registration process.
