Tuition Discounts

For multi-student families, a tuition discount is offered for each additional student enrolled during the same term.  Tuition is calculated beginning with the 1st student at the highest grade level.  In addition, a full tuition payment paid June 1, 2012 will entitle the parent to a 3% discount, July 1, 2012 will entitle a 2% discount, and August 1, 2012 will entitle a 1% discount. 

 

Tuition Payment Process 

Fairfield Christian Academy utilizes the services of FACTS Tuition Management to facilitate all payment plans (single payment and monthly payments).  It is important to note all payments are made directly to FACTS via a debit to a banking account that you designate.  Also, your tuition payments can be processed via one of three payment options. 

  • Option 1 - Single Payment Plan – Payment  made through FACTS by June 1, 2012 receives a 3% discount, July 1, 2012 receives a 2% discount, and August 1, 2012 receives a 1% discount.  FACTS does not charge a fee for the single payment plan. 
  • Option 2 - Monthly Payments (10 months) – Payments are made through FACTS.  The first payment begins either June 20 or July 5 (10-month plan may begin their first payment on July 20 if desired).  FACTS charges an annual enrollment fee of $41.
  • Option 3 - Monthly Payments (12 months) – Payments are made through FACTS.  The first payment begins either June 20 or July 5. FACTS charges an annual enrollment fee of $41.

If you decide to change your payment option after June 1, 2012, a $20 administrative charge will be assessed.

Withdrawal Procedure  

If the student needs to withdraw during the school year, please notify the main office at least two (2) weeks in advance if possible.   An exit interview must be scheduled with the Principal by the parent or legal guardian.   This will enable us to notify the teacher, determine any balance or refund on your tuition account, and complete the necessary paperwork.  In order to have your student's academic and health records transferred from Fairfield Christian Academy to a new school, you must sign a Records Release Form at the new school.   Upon receipt of the signed Records Release Form, we will mail the records directly to the new school.   Please note: all tuition and fees must be current before any records will be released.
