The Rewards are as great as the challenge.

We would like to partner with you on not only helping him reach his full potential, but also helping you afford the cost of tuition. There are options.Need-Based Financial Aid
Riverside offers a need-based financial assistance program to offset the full cost of tuition for students who have been accepted to Riverside Prep. The amount of aid distributed depends on three key items: level of need, availability of funds, and the number of students applying.

Riverside Preparatory Academy is proud to partner with the GOAL Scholarship Program, which helps families access better educational opportunities for their children. In order to be eligible, a family must meet annual income caps and their child must be transferring from a public school in Georgia to Riverside Prep. Your family will be reviewed for eligibility after you have completed the FACTS Financial Aid Application mentioned above. -
Georgia Special Needs Scholarship
In some cases, students can be eligible for the GA Special Needs Scholarship (GSNS) Program offered by the Georgia Department of Education. The GSNS is a school choice program available for students transferring from public to private school, and who are served under an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). To determine eligibility and see what your student may qualify for, go to the GA DOE website. -
Tuition Loans
Tuition loan programs, like Your Tuition Solution, assist many families in making tuition payments more affordable by providing the funds upfront and spreading the payments over a longer period of time than tuition payment plans allow.
