Scholarship Opportunities
We believe every child deserves a great education and are ready to help you get the financial aid you need. As a North Carolina resident, you may be eligible for financial assistance to help offset tuition through the Opportunity Scholarship Program or the Education Student Accounts (ESA+) Program. In many cases, scholarship awards cover the full cost of tuition at Coast to Mountain Preparatory Academy (CM Prep)!
The priority application period for the 2024-2025 ESA+ and Opportunity Scholarship programs has closed. Click here to be notified if the application reopens.
Opportunity Scholarship Program
The Opportunity Scholarship is an income-based award covering partial or full tuition at CM Prep and other non-public schools. Eligible families must meet household income requirements, and award decisions are subject to the available funds.
Education Student Accounts (ESA+) Program
The ESA+ Scholarship is for students who have a documented disability. Awards can be used to cover tuition at a non-public school and other educational expenses.
Students must be eligible for special education services, as documented by a North Carolina public school IEP eligibility determination. These can include but are not limited to: autism, hearing impairment, visual impairment, orthopedic impairment, and intellectual or developmental disability.
