New Tuition Waiver Policy

Many of our participating families make financial sacrifices in order to pay tuition. Because of this, we strive to keep our prices as low as possible. We also offer parents the option to lower the cost of participation through tutoring and other service opportunities.

Each year we prepare our budget in order to determine tuition based on the expected number of families and students participating. We do not factor tuition assistance into our budget because we recognize that many of our families are on a limited income. Despite this, we have been able to bless some of our member families in previous years because of increased enrollment and because some of our expenses were less than anticipated.

In order to ensure that we have the financial resources each year to meet the obligations WCA has towards its enrolled students and our host facility, we are making the scholarship process more formal than it has been in the past. Each family that would like to request a full or partial scholarship must fill out a WCA Tuition Waiver Application (see link on top left corner of the website under "Paperwork") and submit it to edmondwca@gmail.com. Scholarships will be awarded as funds become available, and preference will be given to families that have a parent actively serving as a tutor or other service positions.


If you would like to pledge financial assistance to help families in our group who may benefit from a Tuition Waiver, please email me at edmondwca@gmail.com. Any income allocated to the Scholarship Fund will only be used for that purpose.
