Tuition Assistance and Scholarship Programs
Tuition Assistance:
Phoenix Montessori Academy allocates funds each year to be used for tuition assistance for eligible families. Tuition assistance is available on a first-come, first-served basis at the beginning of the enrollment period.
PMA utilizes a third party, FACTS, to determine eligibility. FACTS objectively analyzes each application based on current income and expenses, with consideration given to circumstances. Based on this analysis, FACTS estimates the amount of assistance needed.
