TUITION PAYMENT PLANS

Each family is asked to choose one of the following tuition payment plans each year. Once set, we ask that you wait until the next school year before changing to another plan. Tuition payments for FACTS drafts are considered late if not paid by the end of the month. Students will not be allowed in classes until payments are up to date. Tuition will be prorated when enrollment is finalized after October 1. This prorated amount will not include tuition for July, August, or September. If paid monthly, you are required to be on FACTS within 30 days of enrollment. Otherwise, there will be an additional monthly fee of $40.00.

NC OPPORTUNITY SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS

Each student’s balance of the tuition not covered by the NCSEAA will be due on December 1, 2024, for the first semester; and May 1 for the second. The balance owed will be based on the difference between the NCSEAA award amount and the tuition for the current year and grade level.
