WITHDRAW POLICY:

  • If student is withdrawn after July 1st but before start of academic year, you will be responsible for ¼ of annual tuition due 

If student is withdrawn after the start of academic year but before end of first marking quarter, you will be responsible for ½ of the annual tuition due

If student is withdrawn after first marking period but before end of second marking period, you will be responsible for ¾ annual tuition due 

If student is withdrawn after start of third marking period, you will be responsible for the year’s tuition paid in full 

Families who choose to withdraw their child/ren from St. Mary’s Academy must notify the Academy in writing.  The family is responsible for contacting the Finance Office to cancel the FACTS payment plan.  The FACTS tuition account will remain open until all outstanding debts for tuition and the extended day program are satisfied. The payment of tuition is a serious commitment, and it is important to stay current in making payments.
