If your child will be flying as an unaccompanied minor, please notify us by email (catesummerprograms@cate.org). We will pick up and drop off campers from the Santa Barbara airport for a fee of $80 ($40 one way). If your child will be flying alone to CSA, please understand the airline’s unaccompanied minor policy. For airport drop off, CSA will help participants check in and walk them to the TSA line, but we will not wait with the participant until the flight departs. Once you have arranged your travel information, please let us know by email (catesummerprograms@cate.org).
If you plan to spend any time locally, please check on the School’s main admission visit page for local hotel information.
