Tuition Assistance

Need-Based Assistance
Annapolis Area Christian School offers tuition assistance to families with demonstrated financial need.  The FACTS system used for tuition payment management is also used for tuition assistance assessment.  Once you have completed your tuition assistance application online, FACTS will verify it along with your supporting documents to provide a need assessment to the school. Please note that you must have a completed application for admission on file before a tuition assistance decision will be made.
 

Applying for Tuition Assistance
You may fill out the FACTS application during the same timeframe that you are completing your application for admission.  However, your tuition assistance application will not be considered until your application is complete and accepted.

New Students

Deadline for New Families for Priority Admission: 
  • Admission and Tuition Assistance Applications due by January 15th 
  • *Acceptance offers (with Tuition Assistance awards) will be delivered on February 20th

Tuition assistance applications are not considered until the admissions application has been completed and the requested tax documents have been received by FACTS. It can take FACTS up to two weeks to process the information and supply AACS with a need assessment. The AACS assistance committee’s goal is to turn that assessment into a decision within ten days.  Schedule disruptions such as Christmas and spring break may preclude reaching this goal from time to time.

Automatic Discounts

AACS offers some automatic tuition discounts to a few narrowly defined groups:

  • Multi-Child - Discount for the 3rd or more concurrently enrolled student, applied to the youngest students.
  • Alumni -Discount for the children of someone who earned an AACS diploma.
  • Pastor - Discount for students with a parent who is a full-time, vocational pastor.
  • Military - Discount for new students with a parent who is active duty, in the Reserves, or in the National Guard.
There is some prior attendance and pastoral service that does not meet these strict definitions. In such cases, families are encouraged to apply for need-based assistance, highlighting these factors in their applications for consideration by the committee.
