How the money fits
When we checked the state's finder on October 12, 2026, Allegiance Academy was listed as a TEFA participating school. That means a student with a funded account can put the $10,474 award toward tuition and required fees here. Odyssey releases each year's money in three parts: a quarter on July 1, a quarter on October 1 and the remaining half on February 1.
An independent school decides its own need-based aid. It may factor in a family's TEFA award, but it may not charge that family a higher tuition than anyone else.

The school's most recent federal Private School Survey response (2023-24) listed 128 K-12 students, 14 full-time-equivalent teachers, a 9.1:1 student-teacher ratio and a 180-day school year.
Ask the school
- Do you expect to be a TEFA participating school for 2027-28, and when do you confirm that?
- Which fees besides tuition can be billed to the account?
- How does your own tuition aid change once TEFA is counted?
- Do you hold a seat while a family waits for an award, and what deposit is due?
- Which dual-credit partners do you use, and can those course fees come from the account?
