Yes, there will be some costs involved along the way, but very minimal. Each program has different items students are expected to pay for, for example meals, accommodations, learner's permit etc.Count on an extra few hundred dollars to pay for miscellaneous fees. (This is not including food + accommodation)MOST programs include a form of housing or accommodation. Although I understand that some companies advance students meal money and then deduct it back in small amounts, once they are getting pay checks when they start their actual driving job.
