Financial Aid applications may be submitted after February 1st.Albany Christian School offers Financial Aid for grades K-8. Our FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment service conducts the financial need analysis for all ACS Financial Aid applicants. The FACTS analysis is then filtered through the ACS Scholarship Team for a second review, so they can consider individual ACS family situations. Financial Aid awards are then determined on a standardized scale with those individual family situations considered. As a general guideline, awards will not exceed 50% of the tuition cost. (Financial Aid does not cover Registration fees.)
Service Participation Requirement:The Financial Aid that ACS offers to families is one way ACS attempts to partner with parents to deepen our commitment to one another. As ACS demonstrates a partnership-commitment to families by the awarding of Financial Aid funds, ACS in turn, asks Financial Aid recipients to demonstrate their partnership-commitment to the school by contributing 15 hours of service to the school per year.
Financial Aid service hours are tracked in your FACTS Family Portal/Family/Service Hours window. In order to be considered eligible to apply for Financial Aid for any following year of enrollment, families must have 15 hours of service logged in to their FACTS Family Portal/Family/Service Hours window. Please call the office for service opportunities, or for more information how to log service hours. 541.928.1110.
