Financial Aid at R-MA
We urge families who need Financial Aid to contact us during the online application process. Our Admissions Counselors will work with families in submitting an additional Financial Aid SSS Application. If your child is accepted to R-MA, we will be happy to provide you the Award amount as part of your Acceptance Package. This is to ensure transparency and timeliness to help your family prepare for an R-MA education.
By offering a robust Financial Aid process, R-MA is able to enroll highly talented students. The Academy is committed to a community of passionate, driven and motivated students from a variety of backgrounds independent of unique financial resources. The following number of families received Financial Assistance for the 2024-2025 school year:

Payment Plans:
Families may also take advantage of two payment plans as listed below:
For those on the two-payment plan, 60% of the tuition and fees is due on August 1st. The remaining 40% is due on December 1st. If the scheduled payments are not received by the 1st of the month a 5% late fee plus an additional $40 will be added and due on the next monthly bill.
The tuition fee is divided into 10 payments beginning June 1st and ending March 1st. There is a 5% interest fee added to this plan and credit approval is required. All monthly payment plans will be set up with automatic credit or debit deductions.
