Preparing Students for the Future in Jesus' Name.

Invest in Education at Mankato Christian Academy

As a parent in today’s world, you understand how challenging it can be for students to navigate changing cultural values and perspectives. Providing your child with a high-quality education rooted in a Biblical worldview, where teachers are committed to ensuring every student feels known, loved, and valued, is invaluable. However, we recognize that the cost of a private Christian education is an important consideration for your family’s budget. Below, you will find tuition information, additional fees, and details about Mankato Christian Academy’s Tuition assistance. As your family partners with MCA, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions.

MCA seeks to attract a diverse and talented student body. To achieve that end, the school is committed to providing financial assistance to qualified students whose families cannot afford the school's full tuition. MCA is using the service of BlackBaud to assist in the application process. Families can apply for financial aid online here.

Aid requests are prioritized by the date the full application and required documentation are submitted. The final deadline for  financial aid applications is July 1.

Co-curricular activities are charged per activity a student chooses to participate in. Fees vary depending on sport/activity.

Referral Program

MCA will provide a $500 tuition credit per new student referred, once he or she enrolls, and tuition is paid. If multiple families refer to the same student, the $500 credit will be divided equally among those families. The same family can refer multiple students and earn tuition credits up to the full cost of their student’s tuition. Please return the Referral Application to the MCA Business Office (document below).
