Courses are tuition-free for Florida residents, and students in Florida can also use the Step Up for Students funding with PEP and/or UA programs to fund courses. We also have a direct partnership with Texas Education Freedom Accounts. If you are outside of the state of Florida or Texas, we have partnered with several states that offer Educational Savings Accounts (ESA) through their Savings Funding Organization.

For students who do not reside in Florida or an ESA state, we offer private pay options.
