At Cumorah Academy

Supporting Your Journey

At Cumorah Academy, we believe every young adult deserves access to quality education and leadership development—regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we offer a variety of scholarships tailored to different levels of need. Each scholarship supports our mission to develop future leaders and visionaries, equipping them for success in life and career.

The specific availability and terms of scholarships will be confirmed during the individual Financial Interview process.

UNDERSTANDING

Tuition Costs

The full tuition for Cumorah Academy’s three-month program is $6,780 USD, which includes education, housing, food, group trips and activities. However, our scholarships can significantly reduce that cost to you. A scholarship, combined with a fundraising campaign means that Cumorah Academy is available and accessible to everyone, whatever your financial situation.

How Scholarships Work

Once you receive a scholarship offer, it should make it possible for you to afford the program. However, there are no 100% scholarships. If you can’t afford your portion of the tuition that you need to pay, you’ll be encouraged and guided to organize a Fundraising Campaign. This campaign not only provides financial support but also helps you build your network and develop essential communication and organizational skills.

Campus Contribution Work

Campus Contribution Work teaches the value of working for the support you receive. This is an opportunity to give back to Cumorah Academy and its generous Donors by helping out. It builds a sense of responsibility and community. This program has various on-campus roles, such as marketing, administration, tutoring, cleaning, farm work and campus maintenance. You can apply for these positions a few weeks before the semester begins, selecting roles that fit your skills and interests. Each student is required to contribute 6 credits (approximately 6 hours) of Campus Contribution Work.
