Tuition and Activity Fee for the 2013-2014 school year will be $5,970 inclusive. This is for all students Pre-Kindergarten 4 through Eighth Grade.
Cornerstone Christian Academy has partnered with FACTS Tuition Management Company to collect and process tuition. FACTS tuition management program is an automated payment system. What this means is that parents are preauthorizing their bank or credit card company to automatically transfer funds to CCA on the installment payment dates traditional to the school. No more mailing checks – unless one is paying the entire tuition upfront at the beginning of the year or upon enrollment. Preauthorized automated payments can be done conveniently from one’s checking or savings account, or by way of MC, Discover, or AMEX – NO VISA.
Your first tuition payment is due July 20, 2013. You may choose one of the payment options in the chart below. The 10-month payment plan begins in July 2013 and ends April 2014. If you choose one of the tuition payment plans below, there is an annual fee of $41.00 to cover the cost of managing your account. If you pay in full by July 20, 2013 you do not need to pay the management fee.

- Those who enroll after July 20, 2013: The monthly payment is based on the yearly tuition divided by the remaining months in the cycle through the final April 20, 2014 payment.
- Those who enroll after school begins: The yearly tuition is prorated for the number of school days remaining and then divided by the number of months left in the cycle through the final April, 2014 payment.
- Those who withdraw after registering with FACTS but prior to the beginning of the school year: If it becomes necessary to withdraw a child after registering with FACTS you have forfeited your first two tuition payments.
- Those who withdraw after the beginning of the school year: Once the school year begins and it becomes necessary to withdraw a child please, inform the school two weeks in advance with written verification and the reason for withdrawal. A withdrawal form is available in the school office, and a $1,000.00 (one thousand dollar) charge will incur at the time of request. You will be obligated to pay tuition through the end of the month in which you withdraw. Parents are required to have Tuition, Extended-Care bills, Service Hour payments and any other outstanding debts paid in full at the time of withdrawal. Student records will not be transferred to another school until all balances are paid.

REFERRAL INCENTIVE
We have a $100 incentive for a referral. If the family referred to our school goes through the application and enrollment process successfully, upon completion of enrollment the referring family would receive the $100.00 incentive, either by check or towards tuition fee. In the admissions packet we have included a form where you can write down the name of the family or person who referred you to our school. Return this form to the office along with your application documents. This way we can make sure all incentives are paid as promised, upon completion of the enrollment process.
