Payment Policies

The following statements are designed to convey to parents a clear understanding of TCA policies regarding payment of tuition and fees. Please read them carefully. If you have any questions, please call the school office.

1. Prompt payment of all accounts is necessary to enable the school to meet its financial obligations (Romans 12:8).
2. No statements will be sent unless requested or as reminders of overdue accounts.
3. The school reserves the right to exclude from classes any student whose financial obligation remains unpaid thirty (30) days after the due date.
4. Student records, report cards, and diplomas may be withheld until overdue accounts are paid in full.
5. Request for transcripts and record releases for transferring students will not be granted until financial obligations are settled and proper withdrawal procedures are followed.
6. No student will be re-admitted to TCA until overdue tuition, fees, or other monies are settled and current re-enrollment fees are met.
7. Tuition will be pro-rated for students enrolling after the beginning of the school year.
8. Tuition will be refunded on a pro-rated basis for students withdrawing after the beginning of the school year. Fees are non-refundable.
9. All accounts must be up-to-date as of September 1^st(typically two monthly payments), and at the end of each quarter (approx. November 10, January 27, March 4).
10. Notify the financial secretary immediately if you cannot make a payment. The Financial Secretary will discuss any situation with TCA Finance Committee, which will provide a written decision to the parent.
