An outstanding Christian education at Westlake is more affordable than you might think! Westlake is committed to making our program accessible to as many families as possible.
Our Variable Tuition program provides discounts of up to 40% for qualifying families. We match your tuition rate to your family’s unique financial position so that tuition at Westlake is not a one size fits all, it’s a range.
Variable Tuition Process
Any family may apply for Westlake's Variable Tuition program. The application for Variable Tuition takes into consideration a number of factors to determine the tuition tailored for your family. We use the FACTS Grant & Aid service for gathering the data and computing a report for individualized tuition rates. The cost for that report is $40 per family (not per student).
Families must re-apply every year for Variable Tuition. The deadline for returning families to apply is April 30th. New families may apply at any time, although you may need to contact us to have the application turned on.
The Variable Tuition application is independent of the Admissions application and can be completed at any time in the Admissions process. Your application is confidential, and all financial information is kept private by our Business Office. We encourage you to Apply for Variable Tuition and see just how affordable Westlake could be for your family.

2026–27 Tuition: Preschool & Pre-K
For the Early Learning Center, all preschool/pre-k students will select a morning class schedule, and then they may choose to extend their day by adding an afternoon enrichment schedule. This offers additional flexibility to families, as they may choose to send their child fewer afternoons than mornings. For example, a child could attend morning class 5 days a week and only stay for the afternoon on MWF. To calculate the cost for a full day of preschool/pre-k, families will need to total the annual amounts for their morning and afternoon selections.
There is a one-time enrollment fee of $100 for preschool/pre-kindergarten, which is due at the time of submitting the online enrollment packet. This fee reserves your space and is non-refundable.
