Get Started

Equitable Tuition

At Hope Academy, our goal is to offer a faith-based, private school education without the private school cost.

Your tuition rate is based on household income and the number of dependents, so you only contribute what you can afford. We have never had a family unable to attend because of their financial situation.

We will discuss tuition and financial aid options with you during the admissions process.

Financial Aid Resources

The North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA) offers grant and scholarship programs that help families afford nonpublic schools.
