Mounds Park Academy is proud to offer the Children of Alumni Discount, which lowers the minimum tuition contribution for children of alumni in grades K-5 who qualify for Indexed Tuition. This special program makes it more affordable for alumni to provide an MPA education for their children.
Mounds Park Academy requires all families, regardless of demonstrated need, to contribute a minimum amount toward tuition. We are committed to meeting 100% of demonstrated need for children of alumni applying to grades K-5 (compared to minimums of 50% for non-alumni children in those grades). The minimum contribution for children of alumni in grades K-4 is $3,000 per student and the minimum contribution in grade 5 is $4,000 per student.
Please note that the Children of Alumni Discount is not guaranteed nor automatic. Only alumni families who apply for Indexed Tuition via Clarity are eligible to be considered for the Children of Alumni Discount. Alumni are defined as students who attended Mounds Park Academy for any length of time.
Children of alumni who continue at MPA after grade 5, or who enroll at MPA for grades 6-12, and who apply for Indexed Tuition, will receive Indexed Tuition based on the current policies at that time. The Children of Alumni Discount is not available in PreK or grades 6-12.
It's Easy to Apply
To apply for the Children of Alumni Discount, families should first apply for admission and Indexed Tuition. Upon receiving an offer of admission, families who qualify will be able to view and accept their Indexed Tuition offer, including the Children of Alumni Discount, and enroll at MPA.
