Tuition and Financial Aid

Is Sophia Academy Worth the Sacrifice?

The cost of an effective therapeutic, multi-sensory education with personalized intervention is substantial. We understand that many families will struggle to meet these costs. But when students face significant struggle in traditional school, they begin to believe lies about their worth and what they can achieve.  Sophia Academy can change the trajectory of your child’s life.  Our mission at Sophia Academy is to help Philadelphia families make that choice and meet these costs.

Base Tuition for 2026-2027:  Grades 9-12 $34,000

IWBMC Evaluation Fee:  $4000

Registration Fee: $150

Books and Technology Fee: $250

Graduation Fee: $200

How will your student’s schooling be funded?

1.  We will charge your tuition on a sliding scale based on your family income. All families desiring assistance must submit the  Financial Aid Application2
2. If you are working with an education lawyer, let us know the status of your case before August 15, so we can adjust your invoicing.
3.  We ask every family who applies for financial aid to apply to two (2) outside scholarships. Some scholarships are listed below. We also suggfest that you asl friends and family to make “Love Donations” in your child’s name to the school. These donations will count toward your costs.
4. We ask every family who receives financial aid to complete 5-10 hours of volunteer work for the school over the course of the year. Call for ideas.
