No Refund Policy

McKinney Christian Academy has financial and contractual arrangements with faculty, staff, vendors, etc., which are made before the beginning of each school year. These obligations and commitments require MCA to MANDATE that all enrolling families commit financially for the entire school year.

In order for MCA to meet its contractual obligations to faculty, staff, and others, we do not offer a refund on any tuition and fees for any reason including, but not limited to, job relocation, change in parents’ decision for student to attend, etc. If for any reason an enrolled student fails to attend or to continue in attendance at MCA for the contracted school year, 100% of the tuition is still due and must be paid in full. Policy is detailed in the Continuous Enrollment Contract for each student. 

Financial Aid

The philosophy of MCA's Financial Aid Program reflects the commitment of MCA to fulfill its mission to educate families from all socio-economic backgrounds. This program is authorized by the Board, is actively promoted among families, and provides an opportunity for families to attend MCA who could not otherwise pay full tuition.

MCA's Financial Aid Program is based on demonstrated need and requires families in financial need to fill out an application through FACTS and submit all required supporting documentation identified on the application. To complete an application, please click on: online.factsmgt.com/aid.

Financial Aid Program applications open each November and must be applied for annually by all MCA Families. MCA awards Financial Aid up to 50% tuition for a maximum of three students per family. NOTE - Pre-K students are not eligible for Financial Aid.

Please note all information on the Financial Aid application is kept confidential and will be known only by the Business Office. We would ask for your assistance in maintaining confidentiality by not discussing any award you may or may not receive with others.
