NEW FAMILY FEE: $750.00 PER FAMILY K-12th Grades (Nonrefundable) The New Family Fee is a one-time fee payable within ten days of acceptance to NRCA. This fee is used for the continued development and advancement of NRCA’s academic programs. Failure to pay this fee within ten days will result in forfeiture of acceptance to the school.

WITHDRAWAL FEE: $750.00 PER STUDENT - Students are considered enrolled for the entire school year; therefore, budgets and teacher contracts are set accordingly. The early withdrawal of a student creates an opening which NRCA may not be able to fill with a viable candidate. For students enrolled for the 2026–2027 school year, the following applies: Students withdrawing after January 10, 2026, owe the Enrollment Fee; students withdrawing after March 31, 2026, owe the Enrollment, Resource, and Capital Fees; students withdrawing after May 31, 2026, owe the Enrollment, Resource, Capital, and $750 Early Withdrawal Fees. NRCA must be notified prior to June 1, 2026 (even if your June payment is not due until after that date), to avoid the $750.00 Early Withdrawal Fee. Students who withdraw after school begins in August owe all the above fees plus the full month’s tuition for any month in which the student attends at least one school day. Tuition remains owed regardless of whether any funds that NRCA may have been promised on a student’s behalf through or by the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship/ESA+ are received by NRCA. Official transcripts, report cards, and records cannot be released or sent to other schools if an outstanding balance remains at NRCA.
