Tuition Policy

At the beginning of each month, the full tuition for that month is due regardless of how many days the student attends during that month. Withdrawal forms received before the 15th of the month will stop the future month's tuition payments. If the withdrawal form is received after the 15th of the month, it will result in the proceeding month's tuition being due regardless of whether the student is enrolled in that month. This notification includes summer months.

Transcripts will not be released unless the student's tuition and fee account is current.

If there is a balance from the previous school year, it must be paid in full prior to the next school year in order for a student to register and attend classes.

The following items are non-refundable:
  • Application fee
  • Registration fees
  • Tuition deposit
  • Financial aid and scholarships

Families who take advantage of the 10-month payment plan option will be charged a $50 fee from FACTS. FACTS will charge a $30 fee for any returned payments (NSF).

If tuition payment is not current by the end of the first semester, students may not return for the second semester until their tuition is brought up-to-date.

Seniors whose tuition payments are not current will not receive their report card, final transcript or diploma.
