Tuition and Financial Partnership
Summit desires to be accessible to every Christian family in the Pacific Northwest. We never want to turn any family away because of finances alone.
We seek to partner with families in finding sources of funds for their children’s Christian education: 529 funds, grandparents, grants, scholarships, your local church, etc. While summit does not have an endowment or scholarship fund, financial partnership funds are provided from our general budget and reduce the funds available for other purposes. We are committed to giving sacrificially for this purpose.
Families who wish to apply for financial partnership should complete the FACTS financial partnership application and pay the FACTS $40 application fee. Applications are reviewed by Summit’s financial partnership committee, which makes a determination for each family. The target of the financial partnership committee is to limit the cost of tuition to roughly 15% of a family’s income depending on their total financial situation.
In 2025-2026 Summit issued over $500,000 in financial partnership with an average award of almost $16,000 per family. We are thrilled to be able to count ministry families, foster families, large families, and families of all economic situations among our community.
New families must apply for financial partnership within 10 days of receiving their acceptance letter.
