Tuition & Fees
Upon child's enrollment, parents are obligated to pay the full tuition and fees for the full academic year. No portion of tuition or fees or charges paid or outstanding will be refunded or cancelled in the event of a student’s absence, withdrawal or dismissal from Hawaii Baptist Academy. Your obligation may be cancelled by notifying Hawaii Baptist Academy in writing by June 30 prior to the beginning of the school year that your child will not enroll. Cancellation of your enrollment may also be subject to forfeiture of your reservation deposit.
Tuition Payments
Tuition is payable either annually, by semester, or monthly:
Annual (Full) Payment
Tuition is payable in advance in one single payment on or before July 1 prior to the beginning of the school year and includes a $150 tuition reduction (not applicable for financial aid recipients).
Semester Payments
Tuition is payable in advance in two installments. The first installment for at least one-half of the tuition along with all fees is due on or before July 1 prior to the beginning of the school year. The second installment of the balance is due on or before December 1.
Monthly Payments
This option requires a $150 handling fee per family and is only available via automatic deduction from checking or savings accounts. Payments are divided into ten monthly installments from July 5 – April 5. All fees are included in the July 5 automatic deduction.
HBA assesses a finance charge of 1.5% per month on all unpaid student account balances. Student accounts must be paid in full prior to the issuance of official academic transcripts or participation in graduation ceremonies.
Tuition Refund Plan
HBA offers tuition insurance to assist with financial losses incurred during the academic year because of withdrawal, dismissal, extended medical absence or death of a student’s parent or legal guardian. Participation in TRP is required for families who choose the semester or monthly payment option and optional for those who choose the full payment option.
