Tuition Assistance
Application Process
STEP 1: FILL OUT AN APPLICATION
Since all types of assistance require an evaluation of a family’s need, a CCA Tuition Assistance Application must be completed, and an online financial evaluation must be completed with BeneFAQ.
- TO CCA (Calvary Christian Academy):
- Tuition Assistance Application Form.
- An Exception Letter (optional) – if the family believes they have unusual/extenuating circumstances that they wish for the Tuition Assistance Committee to consider.
- TO BeneFAQ:
- A copy of your most recent Federal and State tax return.
- A copy of your four most recent pay stubs.
- Any additional documentation required by CFS during the verification process.
Both applications are linked at the bottom of this page.
- **Financial papers should only be provided to BeneFAQ. Do NOT submit tax returns or pay stubs to CCA.
STEP 2: REVIEW BY BENEFAQ AND THE CCA’s TUITION ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE
STEP 3: COMMUNICATION
BeneFAQ will inform each family of the application’s status before the conclusion of the current school year. CCA will inform each family of the committee’s CCA scholarship decision over the summer.
Program Guidelines
STUDENT ELIGIBILITY
In order to receive assistance from the CCA Tuition Assistance Program, a student must be enrolled full-time at Calvary Christian Academy.
REVIEW AND CANCELLATION OF AWARDS
The school reserves the right to review and cancel the financial aid awards at any time because of changes in financial resources, residency, marital status, because of failure to pay any outstanding tuition amounts in a timely fashion, or because of the student’s failure to remain in good standing at the school (academic, discipline, or attendance standards).
TIMELY PAYMENT OF TUITION ACCOUNTS
It is expected that the portion of the family’s tuition bill that is not covered by tuition assistance will be paid in a timely manner. A family not keeping the tuition payment schedule as agreed upon at the time they were notified of their assistance package might jeopardize their tuition assistance award. This is subject to review at the end of each semester.
ACCEPTABLE ACADEMIC PROGRESS
A student is expected to maintain a “C” cumulative average to continue to qualify for tuition assistance. Any student not maintaining satisfactory grades may become ineligible for continued assistance or may be placed on probation for a period of time (not to exceed one quarter) to enable him to bring his grades up to the expected level. Note: If a student is incapable of maintaining a “C” average due to diagnosed learning disabilities, a family may submit an Exception Letter to the committee to be reviewed as outlined above.
ACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR
A student is expected to maintain appropriate conduct at Calvary Christian Academy. Any student suspended for more than one day during a semester may become ineligible for continued assistance at the end of that semester or may be placed on probation for an unlimited time period in which any successive suspension would result in immediate loss of continued assistance.
