MCA’s Tuition Aid Funds

Though educating a student is not affordable (the state of Iowa spends on average $17,031 per student), we want quality, Christian education to be accessible to any family who desires it for their children.

To that end, we work hard to establish a robust Tuition Aid fund to assist the families of Muscatine Christian Academy in meeting the portion of tuition costs that are just out of reach for their family.

Any family is eligible to apply for Tuition Aid. We use an aid assessment service through a company called FACTS to process Tuition Aid requests. You must be enrolled for the next school year before filling out the application online through FACTS. Instructions for application are included in the Enrollment Packet sent upon acceptance to MCA.

Educational Savings Accounts

Educational Savings Accounts (ESAs) can be used at MCA

Educational Savings Accounts (ESAs) were passed into law in the state of Iowa in 2023.

They can be used for K-12th grade at MCA to cover tuition, fees and other school expenses for families who are residents of Iowa, regardless of income.

Parents who choose to enroll their student in MCA will receive an amount equal to the per pupil funding allocated to public school districts for the same budget school year. The 2024-25 amount allocated was $7,826.

For an ESA to be funded, an annual application with the state will need to be submitted through the Odyssey platform for the new school year. The deadline for this yearly application is June 30 each year. If your application is not submitted by that date, your student will not be able to access the ESA funds for that school year.
