Financial Aid

The National Association of Independent Schools’ Guiding Principles for Families acknowledges responsibility for funding an independent school education rests primarily with the family.
However, we also recognize that some families can afford to pay some, but not all, of the tuition.

As an independent school, we believe educating our students means understanding that resources come from time, talents, and treasures. Therefore, our responsibility is to create an environment where our students acknowledge various economic backgrounds.

The Georgia High School Association (GHSA) strictly prohibits scholarships to enrolling students based on merit.

List of 2 items.

  • Eligibility

    • Financial aid is awarded based on demonstrated need of the parent's financial situation. Student performance in academics, fine arts, or athletics does not influence financial aid eligibility.
    • All families must pay a portion of the costs for their child to attend KRCS. 
    • Tuition refund insurance is required for all families that receive financial aid, even if they are paying the portion due in full.
    • Demonstrated need is defined as the difference between the tuition cost and the recommended amount that a family can contribute towards the student's education after considering factors such as net income, assets, number of dependents, number of children attending tuition-charging institutions, and any unusual expenses such as medical costs or educational debt.
  • Financial Aid Notes

    • Financial aid is awarded on a one-year basis to parents. Therefore, you must apply for financial aid each year to be considered.
    • Candidates who miss deadlines or fail to submit all documentation will risk not being considered for financial assistance. Financial aid is considered in this priority: parent of a current student receiving financial aid, parent of a current student newly applying for financial aid, and recently enrolled students. Therefore, missing a deadline will put your priority consideration at risk.
    • The Financial Aid Committee maintains strict confidentiality over financial aid files. Therefore, faculty and students are not informed of financial aid decisions. Families must similarly respect the process and not communicate the amount or designation of a financial aid award. Failure to do so will put the continuation of the award at risk.
    • Current KRCS families applying for financial aid must have completed re-enrollment documentation and submitted a deposit for the upcoming year to be considered for financial assistance.
    • Tuition refund insurance is required for all families that receive financial aid, even if they are paying the portion due in full.
    • King's Ridge Christian School does not discriminate in awarding financial aid based on an applicant's race, color, creed, sex, or national origin.
King's Ridge Christian School is transitioning to a new financial aid management platform for the 2025-2026 school year. Information on how to apply for financial aid will be available soon!
