Tuition Policy
Tuition payments are non-refundable and cannot be classified as a gift. Once a tuition contract is signed electronically during online enrollment, parents are obligated to pay tuition for the entire year. This policy ensures that the school can plan and provide the necessary resources to carry out its mission to inspire academic curiosity, impeccable character and Christian leadership grounded in biblical truth.  Additionally, overnight field trips for grades 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 and participation fees in voluntary programs such as athletics, fine arts, and, student organizations are not included in tuition. Overnight field trips range in price from $300 - $1,400. Participation fees range in price from $85 -$500. There may be other additional fees not listed above depending on the student's activities.

 

Payment Options
FACTS is used for processing tuition and fees. There is an annual processing fee per agreement. Parents paying tuition in full by June 1^st are eligible to receive a $200 (per student) discount. Parents may also choose to pay tuition over a 12-month period beginning in June. Tuition payments may be made on either the 5^th or 20^th of each month.

 

Unpaid Tuition
Tuition is considered late if you miss your scheduled withdrawal. Bank and late fees will be assessed according to bank and FACTS policies. If the account becomes delinquent, student records will be held and the child may be withheld from class until payment arrangements are made. Parents whose tuition accounts are delinquent will not be able to re-enroll their child without satisfying their previous debts. Payments must then be kept current in order for their child to remain on a class roster.

 

Annual Fund
Tuition covers operating expenses and facilitates 100% of the school’s budget. Our Annual Fund provides for additional enhancements and special projects not funded through tuition. Each Fellowship family is strongly encouraged to participate in this yearly fund. Our Board of Directors, administration, faculty and staff lead our culture of giving and participate annually at 100%. Through the generosity of our families, Fellowship continues to provide a cutting edge experience that is academically and spiritually challenging. The Annual Fund is a yearly opportunity apart from any capital campaign and other special fundraising projects.

It would be wonderful if we could provide financial aid for everyone who desires it; however, our resources are limited. Therefore, in accordance with school policies, application for financial aid must be submitted each year. Before making application we encourage all of our families to reconsider their financial commitments and seek alternative sources of tuition funding.

• Aid to an enrolled returning student is given priority over a new student.
• Aid is based upon available funding and family need on a case-by-case basis.
• The amount of aid may not exceed 50% for elementary and middle school and 60% for high school. Generally, the amount awarded is less than those percentages.
• Late submissions may be considered after awards are granted to those who meet the deadline unless funds are exhausted.
• Incomplete submissions will be categorized as “late.”
• Applications will not be accepted after the first day of school.
• If there are special conditions that should be considered, you may send a confidential letter to the Financial Aid Committee in care of Karen Welty, FCS Director of Finance.
• Students must be enrolled in order to be considered for financial aid unless applying for the GA GOAL Scholarship.
• Applications for financial aid funded through the Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program will be required to submit their 2022 tax return.  Applications submitted for GOAL with the 2021 tax return will not be reviewed until the 2022 return has been uploaded to FACTS.  If an extension will be filed, additional documentation will be needed.
