Enrollment in Christian Boarding Schools - Enrolling your Troubled Teen

The Enrollment Process

Once our admissions department receives your enrollment application, one of our Admissions Coordinators will contact you within 24 hours and answer any enrollment questions that you may have. At this time we ask that you begin to pray, seeking God’s perfect will. You can count that we will also be praying, seeking God’s will regarding the enrollment of your child. We will inform you of our enrollment decision soon after receiving and reviewing your submitted enrollment application.

At this point, if you are serious about enrolling your teen into Abundant Life Academy, please call Admissions, at 888-305-6729 and we will walk you through the printing of all enrollment documents, clothing requirements, etc.

The next step of enrollment is to set up the transportation arrangements. Many of our parents choose to accompany their teen to Abundant Life Academy, where they meet the staff and tour the campus. There are plenty of wonderful accommodations near the Abundant Life Academy campus. If you are not able to accompany your teen, there are professional escorts that we can recommend.

As with most boarding schools, Abundant Life Academy requires a one-time enrollment fee. This fee covers a variety of upfront costs that are generally associated with setting up a new student-leader, as well as to cover on-going unforeseen costs while your teen is enrolled in Abundant Life Academy. These costs include transportation to and from the airport, bedding and linen, bathroom and hygiene supplies, Christian CD's, and other miscellaneous incidental costs.

Academic curriculum is an expense covered in the monthly tuition fee. Essentially, the course work your child will complete is fully accredited, accepted in all 50 states, and all our course work has been accepted by local school districts. Many of our students receive their high school diploma while enrolled with Abundant Life Academy.

Parents are required to provide seasonal clothing, sleeping bags, sunglasses, gloves, and other such items. Upon the award of enrollment each family will be given a comprehensive list of what is acceptable and appropriate to bring with him or her upon enrollment.

Abundant Life Academy has teamed up with Masternet Foundation, a non-profit scholarship program that allows family and friends, and other organizations, to donate money on behalf of the student’s family in order to help them over the cost of tuition. The donor receives a tax-deductible receipt for donation, which can be a tremendous value to the donor. In the case of donations made to MasterNet on the behalf of a student and his/her family, everyone wins. The donor wins, the family wins, and the student wins. Also, you might be interested in obtaining a loan to pay for your child’s educational needs. For more information about loans please contact us.

Once you have enrolled your child into Abundant Life Academy you will need to be introduced to all of the policies and procedures of Abundant Life Academy. You will need to know about everything your child is going through in his/her first few weeks and beyond. There are a lot of details that you will need to be aware of and need to be a part of. Again, you will need to contact Admissions at 888-305-6729 to get all of the details on how to proceed.

Shortly after your teen’s enrollment, the Abundant Life Academy Family Representative will contact you and walk you through the next phase. Most parents have a difficult time coping with all the issues surrounding the enrollment and departure of their child. It is very understandable, and we want you to know you are not alone.
