AFFORDING MCA 


MCA is proud to partner with:

The Children’s Scholarship Fund (CSF) provides income-based scholarships for all eligible students applying for Kindergarten (including those in MCA's PK!) and eligible students transferring from a public or charter school in grades 1-8. CSF can reduce tuition by 25-75%. Grants are first come, first served, and are limited. Scholarships are based on household size and income and requirements change annually. 
 
New families applying for a scholarship must complete the online 2024-25 pre-application
  • Qualifying families will be selected and invited via email to complete the full scholarship application and be required to submit all financial documents online.
  • Eligible new students must be entering Kindergarten for the first time OR entering 1st – 8th grade and coming from a public or charter school.
  • Current public or charter school students must submit a recent 2023-24 public school or charter school report card with their full scholarship application.
  • Students entering Kindergarten must meet the NYC Department of Education’s requirement for entering Kindergarten in Fall 2024.

If you know of a child in a public or charter school who would benefit from attending MCA, please encourage them to contact our school offices at info@mcanyc.org or 212-567-5521 as they may be eligible for CSF!
