Admissions & Tuition

Admissions Process

Space is Limited!

We thoughtfully review all applications with care. Our priority is to facilitate a positive and collaborative community. Apply early to be considered!

  1. Fill out an application form.

  2. We'll schedule a call to chat about your goals and the co-op and see if it's a good fit for your family.

  3. Our board will review your application for fit and availability.

  4. Accept your invitation to join the co-op, sign the enrollment form, and pay the deposit (1/3 of the program cost).

Tuition & Fees

Application fee: $15 per family
Registration fee: $0*
2-day programs: $1200 per semester
1-day programs: $600 per semester

This breaks down to a cost of $10 per hour.

*As a small token of our thanks for joining our program as a founding member, we are not charging registration fees!

Payment terms & options:

You have the option to pay in full or split payments into two or three installments. Accepted payment methods include Venmo, check, ACH, or credit card. Please be aware that a 3% service fee applies to credit card payments. There are no refunds.

Step Up for Students Scholarships:

St. Augustine Co-op is a direct provider for Step Up for Students. After enrolling, you can find us in the “Find Providers” section of the Marketplace. Our service Category is “Home Education Tuition / Fees,” our Service Type is “Tuition,” and our Class Type is “In Person.”

Curricula & activities fees:

Aside from a supply list for items such as notebooks and pencils, all curricula and worksheets for the co-op are included in your tuition. From time to time we might ask you to bring something for a special activity.

Discounts:

At this time, discounts are only available for students of teachers and helpers. While we recognize (and personally appreciate!) the importance of sibling discounts, particularly for larger families, the per-student cost structure facilitates our small group sizes. As our co-op expands, we plan to introduce sibling discounts.

We are excited about the possibility of your family joining our community and will reach out to you as soon as space becomes available.
