A unique and beneficial aspect of BA as a UMS school is that parents can decide how much of the school they wish to use. They can enroll their child in any number of classes from a single class to a full time load. Each course we offer is priced according to the credit hours/classroom hours assigned to the course. Because of this, tuition cost will vary based on the actual courses taken.
The figures below are averages only, and based on a full class load. Actual tuition will be calculated at enrollment when classes are selected.

Multi-Child Discounts
Families with more than one student at BA may be eligible for a multi-child tuition discount. To be eligible for this discount, students must be enrolled in at least 17 semester hours. The discount is as follows:
| 2nd student in family | 7.5% tuition discount |
| 3rd student in family | 15% tuition discount |
| 4th and additional student(s) | 20% tuition discount for 4th and each additional student |
This discount will be calculated on the greatest to least tuition amount. For example, in a family with 3 students who qualify for the discount, the student with the highest tuition will pay full price, the next highest tuition will receive 7.5% discount, and the lowest tuition will receive 15% discount.
Note: Cost per course varies more in elementary.
