Tuition

Families can apply for need-based tuition assistance, which is determined by a confidential review of your financial situation, including income, assets, and expenses. Assistance typically covers up to 50% of tuition, with no strict income cutoffs—each application is unique. We encourage all families to apply, as awards vary and you won’t know until you try. Additionally, education investment accounts such as 529 plans, Coverdell ESAs, and Texas Education Savings Account (ESA) funds are accepted to help pay tuition. Family contributions are also often welcomed. For details on applying and deadlines, visit our financial aid page .

Covenant Christian Academy does accept Texas Education Savings Account (ESA) funds and encourages families to apply for ESA as early as possible to determine eligibility and potential tuition support. We also offer a robust Tuition Assistance program based on financial need, evaluated confidentially through FACTS. If you receive ESA funds after your Tuition Assistance award, we may adjust your award or net tuition accordingly to ensure your tuition reflects available funding without exceeding original amounts.
