Tuition is one of the most practical questions families ask when comparing online high school programs. Parents want clear numbers, plain language, and a chance to understand which pricing path applies to their student before they move forward.

RCA International offers online school admissions pathways for high school students, grades 3-8, homeschool families, transfer students, international students studying from home, and partner or cohort relationships. Because families may come through different pathways, tuition can depend on the student’s enrollment type.

Full-Time Annual Tuition

Full-time annual tuition is $5,000 USD paid in full for domestic and international students. This is the paid-in-full annual tuition path for full-time enrollment. Families considering full-time online high school should ask admissions staff how this tuition path connects to the student’s grade level, records review, and education or graduation plan.

For high school students, RCA International graduation requires 24 credits. Admissions staff may review prior academic records, evaluate completed courses or equivalents, and build an education or graduation plan. Tuition conversations are easier when the family and staff understand whether the student is starting high school, transferring from another school, coming from a homeschool background, or studying online from home as an international student.

Full-Time Annual Tuition Payment Plan

RCA International also lists a full-time annual tuition payment plan. The payment plan is a $500 deposit plus $500 per month for 10 months, totaling $5,500 USD.

This gives families a way to compare paid-in-full tuition with a monthly payment structure. Families should ask admissions staff to confirm current timing, registration steps, and whether the payment plan applies to the student’s intended enrollment path.

This article does not promise that a particular payment gateway or payment method is available. Families should use the inquiry process to confirm the current payment process and any enrollment steps that apply.

Dual-Enrolled International Cohort Tuition

Dual-enrolled international cohort tuition is $3,000 USD per year. This pricing applies to approved dual-enrolled international cohort relationships, not necessarily to every individual international student.

A cohort is a group of students dual enrolled in a local school or micro school and RCA International. These arrangements should be discussed through the appropriate partner, cohort, or admissions process. Schools, partners, or agents should not promise admission, graduation, credit approval, visa outcomes, or the ability to bypass RCA International review.

International families should also understand the online-from-home boundary. RCA International is not a U.S. visa program and does not provide visa sponsorship, immigration services, relocation services, or permission to enter the United States.

Hybrid or Custom Standard Course Pricing

Hybrid or custom standard courses are $300 USD per course per term or semester. This pricing may be relevant for families discussing selected courses, hybrid support, or custom arrangements rather than full-time enrollment.

This can be especially important for homeschool families or students who need a specific course conversation. However, families should not assume that every custom request will be approved or that every student is eligible for every structure. Admissions staff can discuss the student’s situation and help clarify which path may fit.

Corban University Dual-Credit Course Fee

Corban University dual-credit courses include a $150 USD fee per course, per term or semester. This fee should be discussed only for eligible students and appropriate course plans. Dual credit should not be marketed as automatically available to every student or as a guaranteed college-credit outcome.

Homeschool high school families are not currently eligible for Corban University dual credit. This is an important boundary to state clearly so families do not plan around an option that does not apply to them.

Families who may be eligible can ask admissions staff about course planning, eligibility review, and whether Corban University dual-credit courses fit the student’s plan. RCA International should not promise college acceptance, transferability, or a specific post-high-school result.

Tuition Aid Through FACTS

Families may ask whether tuition aid through FACTS is an option to explore after the registration or enrollment timing that applies to their situation, where applicable. This should be presented as a conversation to explore, not a guarantee of aid or a promise that every family will qualify.

Financial questions are best handled through the inquiry and admissions process because the student’s path matters. A full-time family, a hybrid/custom course family, and a cohort family may not all have the same steps, timing, or options.
