Tuition Donation credits & scholarships
Tuition assistance
Families requesting tuition assistance must apply each year with Blackbaud Financial Aid Management at studentfinancialaid.blackbaud.school for a Financial Aid Assessment before re-enrolling or enrolling a student at Evangel.
Evangel Christian Academy (ECA) has an application process for tuition assistance that we believe offers fair and impartial consideration in awarding tuition assistance. It should be noted that Evangel does not give athletic scholarships or award tuition assistance based on athletics. Tuition assistance is based upon financial need.
New families to Evangel requesting assistance must apply initially through the Tuition Donation Credit Program: ARETE - www.aretescholars.org or ACE - www.acescholarship.org/become-a-scholar/louisiana/.
Families requesting assistance who do not qualify for ACE or ARETE and returning families requesting tuition assistance – no exceptions – is required to apply for assistance each year through Blackbaud Financial Aid Management at studentfinancialaid.blackbaud.school. After completing the online application, you must provide required supporting documents to Blackbaud. The required documents are listed on Blackbaud’s website.
Blackbaud will do a financial assessment and send ECA a report which will be used to determine the amount of assistance, if any, that will be awarded to a family for the upcoming school year. The assistance awarded will apply to the upcoming school year only. The ECA Admissions Director will communicate the tuition assistance awarded to you through a letter sent by email. Upon receiving the award letter, you will go to the Admissions Office where you will fill out the required paperwork to enroll/re-enroll your student(s).
Be advised that if you do not file for tuition assistance with Blackbaud Financial Aid Management before you enroll/re-enroll your student, you will not receive tuition assistance and will be expected to pay full tuition. ECA requires that all families pay some part of their child’s tuition. ECA has the ability to revoke tuition assistance at any time during the school year if your student does not follow the guidelines set forth in the ECA School Handbook.
The deadline for returning families to apply for tuition assistance with Blackbaud is April 15, 2024.
