TUITION INSURANCE
CCS enrollment terms state that tuition is due in full for the entire year regardless of a student’s enrollment status. Therefore, tuition insurance (“Tuition Refund Plan”) is in place to protect your financial investment in the event that your student does not complete the school year.
Participation in the Plan is required for all Quarterly and Monthly Payment Plan families. This coverage is optional, but recommended, for those choosing the Annual Plan since their tuition is paid in full prior to the beginning of the school year.
The premium for this coverage is calculated at 3% of the tuition for your student’s grade level, and is due in full by July 1st with the first plan installment payment. For details on the TRP and coverage limitations, please see the A.W.G. Dewar Tuition Refund Plan brochure.
FUNDED AND UNFUNDED SCHOLARSHIPS
Due to the demand for financial assistance and the amount of funds available, we strongly encourage you to complete the application process as soon as possible.
Due to the significant number of applications CCS receives, we strictly follow the guidelines below to promote a fair and equitable distribution of financial assistance to those who qualify and meet our deadlines. All funds are distributed on a first come, first served basis as the budget allows.
Financial assistance awarded may change from year to year based on a family's financial profile, the child’s academic standing, and the availability of funds. Please know that all financial information is kept strictly confidential.

The process of applying for a Charleston Collegiate Scholarship is identical to the process of applying for Funded and Unfunded Scholarships.
Charleston Collegiate School offers a limited amount of need-based, privately funded Scholarships which provide tuition assistance to qualified CCS Students. 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.
