Tuition Fees, Scholarships & Financing Options
AHSA offers the choice of a private school education with affordable payment options and scholarships. During registration, we help families complete a confidential financial aid worksheet to determine tuition. Families who choose not to complete the worksheet are responsible for the full annual tuition. AHSA provides its own financing through the installment plans listed for each program below. Some plans are available on approved credit.
