Tuition Policy
I. Tuition and any applicable fees are due and payable on or before July 1, 2018. St. Catherine’s Montessori has contracted with FACTS Management Co. to manage tuition and other fees for 2018-2019 school year.
II. Tuition is payable through payment plan set up through FACTS. Tuition may be paid by automatic bank payment (no fee), credit card payment with 2.85% service fee, or payment by check made directly to school. Returned checks will incur a $30 fee.
III. Tuition payment plans are as follows (All fees are still due on 7/1/2018):
• Annual Plan (one installment plan)
• Three equal tuition payments due 7/1/2018, 10/1/2018, 1/1/2019.
• Nine equal tuition payments due on the first day of each month July, 2018 through March, 2019.
-
Three and nine month tuition plans payment plans include interest at the rate of 7.5% per annum.
IV. Tuition unpaid by the tenth day of the month in which it is due is considered delinquent and collection procedures will be pursued. Late payments will affect the ability to finance tuition in the future. If tuition becomes 90 days or more delinquent the financing arrangement is considered breached and the balance of the school year’s tuition will become due and payable immediately.
V. Families with more than one child enrolled in the school will receive a tuition discount of 10% for each younger sibling.
