Payment Plans
Concord Academy offers families three school-administered tuition payment plans:
- One-Payment Option—The full tuition is due on July 1. This plan includes a discount of $100.
- Two-Payment Plan—60 percent of the tuition is due on July 1, and the balance is due on December 1.
- Ten-Payment Plan—This payment plan, administered by Key Education Resources, requires ten monthly payments that begin in May of the preceding year and finish in February. There is a $75 application fee, no interest charges, no credit review, and a direct-debit option.
Loans
Families who prefer to make lower monthly payments over an extended period of time may want to consider credit-based loans, which may be used to cover all or part of a family’s contribution:
- Key Achiever Loan is a variable rate loan (the interest rate is adjusted quarterly to 4.5 percent above the thirteen-week Treasury Bill rate) with flexible repayment terms. The initial approval will reserve funds to cover up to four years of education.
- Parent Loans for Elementary and Secondary Education (PLEASE) are offered by The Education Resources Institute (TERI). The interest rate is variable (prime + 2 percent) and there is a one-time guarantee fee of 6 percent. Flexible repayment terms are available.
