How much is tuition? How often is it paid?
At St. Thomas Aquinas Academy, offer annual enrollment fees cover personalized academic planning, advisor support, and access to the STAA Student Zone. These fees vary by family size—check the ANNUAL ENROLLMENT page for current rates. You pay this once per academic year when you submit your enrollment application to plan for the next grade level. To keep your family’s advisory services and Student Zone access active, renew each June.
When should I enroll to get started?
We accept applications from January 15 to November 30 for the 2025-2026 school year (August 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026). Submit your enrollment 6-8 weeks before your planned start date, ideally completing skills assessments in March or April for a smooth start. Enroll now to get your welcome packet! »

What if I have my own plan for several courses already?
For families eager to explore St. Thomas Aquinas Academy’s classical curriculum at their own pace, our Independent Study with Online Support membership offers a flexible, affordable option. Designed for homeschoolers who want to use STAA Study Guides and resources for select courses without the full academic planning and advisor support of our annual enrollment, this monthly membership provides access to the STAA Student Zone—featuring weekly graded quizzes, Q&A forums, and gradebooks to track progress for students in Grades 7-12. You can tailor your teen’s studies to fit your family’s needs, adding live online classes or additional advisor guidance as desired, all while maintaining the freedom to direct your homeschool journey independently.
