Fees & Testing (By Invitation)
Application Fees
A $100.00, non-refundable application fee is due at the time of the application submission and entrance testing for grades K–10.
Admissions Testing
- Kindergarten and 1st Grade: Applicants will take a placement test given by our admissions office. The cost for testing is $150.00 paid at the time of scheduling.
- Students entering grades 2–10 will take the Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) online. The exam cost is determined by ISEE and varies depending on testing location and lead time.
Financial Aid (Optional)
CCA uses FACTS Financial Aid to assist with financial aid assessments. FACTS allows for a consistent approach in determining tuition needs. Families should provide financial information and answer all questions to give the financial aid committee a comprehensive view of the family’s overall need.
We understand the challenges associated with making this level of financial investment in your child’s education. We encourage you to prayerfully consider your circumstances and to determine the best course of action for your family. CCA is “admissions blind” and makes enrollment decisions independent of financial aid requests. Following your financial aid decision, you will have five days to finalize your enrollment decision.
Submit online FACTS application (link will be provided during the application process).
