Discounts

Multi-student Discounts: Multi-student discounts are given for families with more than one student enrolled at LCA. Annual tuition is discounted by 10% for the second student. A 20% discount is given for additional students following the second student. The student in the higher grade will be considered the first student.

Ministerial Partnership Program: LCA’s Ministerial Partnership Program has been designed to provide an affordable option for leaders in full-time ministry who desire Christian education for their children.

The elders of a local church or the board of a non-profit ministry may opt to provide an educational benefit to full-time leaders by donating up to 25% of the cost of tuition to the school. In turn, LCA will match up to an additional 25% in tuition, allowing the ministry leader to realize up to a 50% total tuition discount.

Financial Assistance

LCA provides limited tuition assistance through a need-based financial assistance program and the Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program. Families interested in financial assistance must complete an aid application. A student's enrollment eligibility must first be established before a scholarship award is determined. Details on LCA's need-based finance assistance program can be found here.

The Georgia Promise scholarship is an education choice program that provides eligible students with the opportunity to use public funds for non-public education expenses in grades K - 12th. As a Georgia Promise partner, scholarship money awarded can be used for tuition at LCA.

The deadline to apply is Monday, April 15. To determine eligibility, complete the prescreening tool. Additional information can be found at Georgia Promise Scholarship.

Additional Information

Past Due Accounts

Monthly tuition payments will be made by an automatic draft of the family's account. For accounts that are not paid by the due date, a $25.00 late charge or 1.5% of the outstanding balance, whichever is greater, will be applied to the tuition account. Families that choose the one or two pay plan must make payments by the respective due dates or risk forfeiting the discount. If an account has a past due balance in excess of 60 days, parents may be asked to withdraw their child(ren) from school.

Insufficient Funds

In the event a draft is attempted but fails to be paid due to insufficient funds, a $30.00 fee will be assessed. A second draft will be attempted.

Withdrawal Fee

It is assumed that a family is enrolling for the entire year. Faculty and staff hiring, and budgets are set accordingly based upon enrollment numbers. Students who withdraw before fulfilling their financial contract must submit thirty days’ written notice. All paid fees are forfeited, and a withdrawal fee will be assessed.

  • Families who withdraw after February 15 and up to the start of the school year will be subject to a 2-month tuition penalty.

  • Families withdrawing after the first day of school will be required to pay for the month of withdrawal plus two additional months.

Report cards and/or transcripts are released to the parent or other schools only when the student’s financial account is paid up to date and all school property is returned in good condition.
