Families begin paying towards tuition with their enrollment deposit. In order to accept an offer of admission, a family pays an enrollment deposit to secure their child’s spot. This enrollment deposit is then applied to the tuition obligation. Required textbooks are also purchased and billed separately and are not included in the price of tuition.

  • Single Payment Option: The tuition balance (minus the enrollment deposit) is paid in full.
  • Two Payment (75/25) Option: The tuition balance (minus the enrollment deposit) is paid over two installments. The first installment asks families to pay 75% of the remaining tuition deposit with the remaining 25% of the tuition balance (minus the enrollment deposit and first installment) is paid later.*
  • Monthly Payment Option: The tuition balance (minus the enrollment deposit) is paid over a 10-month period with each payment due on the 15th of each month.* 
*A small administrative fee is assessed with this payment plan which is outlined in the enrollment contract. Families receiving financial aid have these fees waived.
