Some employers offer education assistance, tuition reimbursement, or dependent tuition benefits as part of their compensation package. Capstone is open to working with families who have access to employer-sponsored education funding or other applicable assistance programs. Contact our admissions team to discuss your specific situation.

Capstone offers a 20% sibling discount for each additional child enrolled, a 5% discount for military, first responder, and pastoral families, and a 3% discount when tuition is paid in full upfront. Discounts can be stacked — visit our tuition pages for complete details and scenario estimates.
