TUITION INSURANCE
Charleston Collegiate School enrollment terms state that tuition is due in full for the entire year regardless of a student’s enrollment status. The Tuition Refund Plan, otherwise known as tuition insurance, is in place to protect your financial investment in the event that your student does not complete the school year. Participation in the Tuition Refund Plan is required for all quarterly and monthly payment plan families. The coverage is optional for those choosing the annual plan since their tuition is paid in full prior to the beginning of the school year, but still highly encouraged. The premium for this coverage is calculated at 3% of the tuition for your child(ren)’s grade level(s), and will be billed in August for the 21-22 school year.
For more details about the Tuition Refund Plan, please see the A.W.G. Dewar Tuition Refund Plan at www.tuitionrefundplan.com

These scholarship funds are made possible by generous donors to Charleston Collegiate School. Scholarship students must qualify for financial assistance and must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA.
Funded scholarships help supplement the unfunded scholarship program. Funded scholarship are awarded to students that uphold the highest standard of conduct on and off campus, maintain high academic achievement, stay involved in school activities and set a good example for other students.
