Enrollment
The Process
Thank you for considering AABC! The enrollment process is designed to ensure that AABC is the right learning environment to meet your family’s needs. If you’re considering AABC, we encourage you to work your way through the following steps:
​
Step 1: Learning
First, explore our website. There are a lot of resources and answers here to get you started and ensure you have a basic understanding of what AABC is all about. This includes checking out the Acton-Related Resources page. We highly recommend reading Courage to Grow, as it is the foundation for Acton Academy’s methodology. In addition, check out our social media sites.
​
Step 2: Contact Us
When you’re ready, email us at actonbergen@gmail.com. We will provide the registration paperwork at this time, answer your questions, and, as needed, set aside time for a more in-depth discussion regarding your learner and whether or not AABC offers the right fit for your family.
​
Step 3: Complete The Application Forms
Fill out the application forms that we will send to you and ask two teachers or coaches to fill out a profile survey for your child.
​
Step 4: Family Visit
After we receive the application, we will schedule a time with the prospective learner and parent(s)/guardian(s) to visit AABC and address any questions.
Step 5: In-Studio Try-Outs
If it is mutually agreed that AABC is a highly promising fit for the prospective learner and their parent(s)/guardian(s), the prospective learner will be invited to spend 2-5 full days in an AABC studio. Contingent upon a successful tryout period, AABC will take up to one to two weeks to decide whether or not to offer admission to the prospective learner.
​
Step 6: Invitation to Enroll
Upon completion of steps 1-5, an email will be sent to the parent(s)/guardian(s) of the prospective learner, asking them to enroll their child in the AABC learner community.
​
Tuition & Fees
​
Our annual tuition is $9900, plus a non-refundable registration fee of $400. Due to our size limitations, we cannot hold a learner’s spot in the studio (even if he/she has made it through the above steps) without the registration fee. Once the registration fee has been received and successfully processed, then the learner’s admission within the studio is confirmed.
​
Financial Aid
​
Limited need-based financial aid is available for qualifying families.
