Tuition & Fees
A Wise Investment
Christian education is an investment! Where better to invest than in the lives of our children? At VCA, we make every effort to keep the cost of education affordable to our families. For families demonstrating need, we offer tuition assistance.
It is important to understand that VCA does not charge the full cost of education. Because the cost of education exceeds the actual tuition income, each year\'s Annual Eagles\' Fund effort endeavors to raise the necessary monies to completely support the program. Each year, parents and friends of the school are asked to consider what they can contribute to the Eagle\'s Fund. Many donors contribute to make Christian education at VCA affordable.

Tuition Payment Plans
VCA offers four plans for making tuition payments:
One annual payment (August)
Two semester payments (August and January)
Ten monthly payments (September through June)
Twelve monthly payments (July through June)

VCA utilizes a Direct Tuition Payment Program which deducts your payment directly from the account of your choice. If you so choose, you can lower your tuition costs by participating in our Tuition Reduction Incentive Program. (T.R.I.P.) Visit the TRIP Page for all the details.
