Cost

As a not-for-profit institution, the American School puts Coststudents’ educations first. Our tuition is affordable—much lower than many other distance education and online high schools—and all textbooks and study materials are included at no additional cost.

Currently a full 4-year, 18 unit high school diploma program costs $1599. 13 1/2 units (3 years) costs $1289. 9 units (2 years) costs $979.  4 1/2 units (1 year) costs $659.   

Individual courses purchased through our Independent Study program usually cost between $150 and $200. 

Our diploma programs’ flexible payment schedule, which allows students to pay as little as $50 per month, makes our low tuition even more affordable.  In addition, there are no interest charges, no charge for pre-evaluation of U.S. transcripts, and very few extra fees along the way. Those who transfer to the American School from a local high school or who have completed homeschool courses can receive credit for previous work when properly documented. Finally, the School is proud to offer lower tuition for General High School or College Preparatory Program students who pay in full at the time of enrollment.
