Each school year all families enter a contract with ACS whereby they are financially obligated to pay the FULL annual tuition for their child to attend the school, regardless of withdrawal or inability to pay. 

The Tuition Protection Plan provides peace of mind for families who cannot or do not wish to be exposed to the possible loss of thousands of dollars in tuition charges. Without the TPP, parents will be responsible for 100% of tuition even if an unforeseen circumstance, withdrawal, dismissal or expulsion occurs. The Tuition Protection Plan is optional for all payment plans. All Families are highly encouraged to purchase the TPP to protect their tuition investment in the event of a qualifying event.

Tuition Payment Options

Option 1:  SINGLE PAYMENT PLAN: Payment will be drafted through F.A.C.T.S. by Monday, June 5th, 2020

Option 2:  TWO PAYMENTS PLAN: 1st payment will be drafted through F.A.C.T.S. on or before Monday, June 5th and 2nd payment drafted by February 20th, 2021.

Option 3: MONTHLY PAYMENT PLAN: 1 payment per month on the: 5th or 20th  & Number of payments to be drafted: 10 or 12 . NOTE: If a 10 month payment plan is selected, the 1st monthly draft begins in June and the final draft will be in April. Drafts will occur in the following months:June thru December, then February, March and April. Therefore the final monthly draft will be in April instead of March. This is to help families enroll in ACS for the upcoming school year. If a family in Prek, K or 12th grade selects the 12 month payment plan, their final payment will occur on May 5th instead of May 20th. This is so that all accounts will be paid in full by graduation/end of year ceremonies. 

F.A.C.T.S. monthly plan is drafted from a personal checking or savings account.  All payments MUST be received in this manner.    ACS reserves the right to dismiss a student if payments are not made in a timely manner or through the F.A.C.T.S. program.  Credit cards can be used by calling F.A.C.T.S. 

When unforeseen qualifying events occur, make sure that your tuition is protected!

Why do you need The TPP?

The TPP provides peace of mind for families who cannot or do not wish to be exposed to the possible loss of thousands of dollars in tuition charges. 

Each school year all families enter a contract with ACS whereby they are financially obligated to pay the full annual tuition for their child to attend the school, regardless of withdrawal or inability to pay. 

If your son or daughter experiences a qualifying event, the TPP will waive your tuition obligation (subject to the terms of the plan) to the school on your behalf to help you meet your existing obligation.

Must I participate in the TPP?

The Tuition Protection Plan is optional for all payment plans. All Families are highly encouraged to purchase the TPP to protect their tuition investment in the event of a qualifying event. Without the TPP, parents will be responsible for 100% of tuition even if an unforeseen circumstance, withdrawal, dismissal or expulsion occurs. 

What is the cost of the TPP?

The cost of the Tuition Protection Plan is $150 per student.  Payment is due with submission of the enrollment contract.
