Fee Schedule
Application Fee - $60 $150 - 1st Student Upon Registration * All fees are non-refundable.
Tuition 3rd (or more) student in a family taking a full load 10% off total tuition for that child Tuition Payment Policies Unless paid in full by July 1 of any given year, monthly installments for tuition/fees are due and payable on the 5th or 20th of each month via the FACTS tuition management system. Those families able to pay the full amount of tuition and fees at enrollment will receive a 5% discount on that amount—NOTE: Fees are not included in this discount. For monthly payment purposes, the total cost of a semester at LPCA is divided over a five month period for the spring and fall semesters.
Tuition/fees are due and payable whether or not the student actually enters school, or if the student withdraws, is expelled, or for any other reason fails to commit to or continue in attendance at LPCA for the school year. If a tuition account remains delinquent for two or more months, or there is evidence of chronic tardiness in making the monthly payments, LPCA reserves the right to withdraw the student from the academy, or deny re-enrollment for the following semester, and to withhold the student’s grades, testing results, transcripts or diploma until the Family Tuition Account is paid in full. Refund Policies
All tuition and fees at LPCA are based on an estimated cost of providing the educational services of the academy to all enrolled students. By signing and returning an enrollment contract, we reserve a place for your child (as class space is available) and you pledge to LPCA that you will pay the costs indicated in order that we may meet the budget of the academy. We employ faculty and staff members in accordance with the number of students enrolled and must honor those staff contracts whether or not a student withdraws from the academy.
If you find it necessary to withdraw your child after an enrollment contract is signed and returned to the academy, please contact our Business Director as soon as possible. If we can fill your child’s vacancy (i.e., each course in which the student is enrolled) with another student prior to the first day of classes, a 100% tuition refund can be arranged. After the first day of school and before the end of the first week of classes, a 50% refund can be arranged as long as the student is in good standing (i.e., has not withdrawn for academic or disciplinary reasons) and his/her vacancy (i.e., each course in which the student is enrolled), can be filled by another student.
There are no tuition refunds after the first week of classes in any given semester. Requests for such refunds must be made directly to the Business Director’s office, and will be reviewed by the Board. Approved refunds are typically paid within 30 days of the approval date. In addition, please note the following:
* All Application, Registration, Testing, and Book Fees are not refundable under any circumstances
Changes to a student's schedule at any time after the course registration forms have been given to the Registrar for processing will result in an administrative fee of $25.00 per form, regardless of the number of changes requested. A separate form must be used for each student. This fee does not apply to scheduling changes initiated by the academy.
Transcripts are available upon request for those that have fulfilled their financial obligations to LPCA in accordance with LPCA policies—the first three requests are free for students currently enrolled at LPCA, with a $5.00 per transcript fee thereafter, and $10.00 per transcript fee for LPCA Alumni. |
