Income-based Tuition (for qualifying families)
At Life International Academy, we uphold the belief that high-quality education should be accessible to every child, regardless of their socioeconomic status. To support this, we've implemented an income-based tuition scholarship for the 2025-2026 academic year for families that qualify for financial aid. Our out-of-pocket tuition fees are tailored to household finances, ranging from 1.0% to 10.0% of the household's Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). Depending on eligibility for Florida scholarships, annual tuition at Life International Academy can vary, ranging from as low as $500 to a maximum of $10,000 per academic year, while funds are available in our scholarship budget through the support of generous donors and partners.
All Florida residents are eligible for scholarships to attend private schools, regardless of income level. We strongly encourage families to apply for these scholarships as early as possible, maximizing their chances of securing financial support and enhancing educational opportunities.
