The Tuition Assistance program at Hillcrest Christian Academy is funded by Pennsylvania’s Education Improvement Tax Credit Program. This program allows certain companies and corporations within the state to donate their taxes to the school of their choice instead of paying them directly to Harrisburg. We have partnered with several companies already, and are happy to offer scholarships to our families based upon income, assets, and debt.

To see if you qualify, stop by the school office and ask for an application. You will be given one of two applications: one from the Private School Aid Service, or one from the Association of Christian Schools International. Both of these organizations make recommendations based upon the application submitted, and release funds designated for our school through the donating organizations. Your child must be enrolled at HCA before you can apply for tuition assistance.

In addition, there are times when we are made aware of other scholarships that may be available, and we communicate that as the opportunity arises.

If for some reason you do not qualify for tuition assistance (and most people do), but you have recently experienced a personal downturn economically, speak to our Principal or Development Director. There may still be options open to you, and we can help you explore those options.
