Tuition Assistance Information for Prospective Families

CAWNY offers a generous tuition assistance program.  After completing the Tuition Assistance form, your family may be eligible to receive a substantial discount on all tuition costs.  This assistance can work hand-in-hand with the Volunteer Program. 

 

Tuition Assistance is based on the family's income, number of students enrolling and family size.  It is available to families with children in all grades, including High School.

 

 

 

Prospective families can apply for tuition assistance to see if Christian education is something that can be prioritized in their family's budget before going through the enrollment process.  As families make the decision of whether or not to pursue Christian education for their child(ren), families can already have an amount that it will cost them for the school year in hand when their family applies for admittance.  Click the link below to complete the short, online form, 

 

 

If your family qualifies for tuition assistance through the short form, you will need to complete a full Application for Tuition Assistance after enrollment.  The form is not long or difficult, but it does require verification and a little more detail than the short form. 

 

 

 

If you have decided that Christian education is definitely something your family is going to pursue or if you have already enrolled for the next school year, you can complete a full 2024-25 Application for Tuition Assistance. 

 

 

Please contact us by phone or email if you have any questions.

Currently, and throughout the year, CAWNY has a great need for volunteers.  We understand that God equips everyone with special talents and gifts.  If you are able to use your God-given abilities to aid CAWNY in a tangible way, then CAWNY may be able to use that in figuring out tuition assistance.

4th, 5th child and so on: $1,000 per student. 

The Bison Fund is a privately funded program that offers tuition assistance to low-income families.  It is an annual lottery that awards amounts at a minimum of $500 towards a child's education, with the largest grant available at $2,500.00 per child.  This money is allowed to be used at any private grammar school, K through 8, of choice.  Families in all eight counties are eligible to apply if you meet the financial guidelines.  New applications are due by March 15 for the following school year.  However, we strongly recommend that new families apply to the Bison Fund, even if the deadline has passed.  You will be placed on a waiting list.  We have seen many new families receive a scholarship, even after the deadline.  Please visit their website for more information:  www.BisonFund.com.

Please ask the Business Administrator- Accounts Receivable, Mrs. Mellon, for further details on any of the types of tuition assistance.
