Reenrollment

List of 16 frequently asked questions.

• Q. What is the schedule?

  We will email a link to the electronic enrollment contracts on January 23, 2023 with a deadline for completion of February 3, 2023.

• Q. Are there any changes this year?

  We are continuing with Blackbaud Tuition Management this year. Credit card payments and EFT payments can be made directly through Tuition Management. Current families will use the same account as last year but will have a single sign on through ShipleyNet. New families will create their accounts as their contract is submitted.

• Q. Will all parents/guardians receive an enrollment email?

  All parents and guardians will receive the email to complete online enrollment. Please note that only one parent/guardian signature is required to enroll, so you may want to decide which parent/guardian will complete the enrollment process. Also, once the enrollment process is complete, another parent/guardian cannot access the system to enroll the student.

• Q. What is Blackbaud Tuition Management?

  We use Blackbaud Tuition Management as our online tuition portal. Families can log in to make payments, check account balances, and set up automatic payments. If you have any questions, please contact Morgan Nappi. 

• Q. What are the deposit amounts?

  The amount will be 5% of the net tuition (total tuition less any Tuition Assistance award). Depending on the tuition for your child(ren) and the Tuition Assistance award, the required deposit amount will vary. Families not receiving Tuition Assistance will pay 5% of the total tuition amount.
  
  A net tuition example: A 10th grade Total Tuition of $40,750 - $20,750 in Tuition Assistance = $20,000 Net Tuition. The deposit amount would be $20,000 x .05 = $1,000.

• Q.

  Are there any special instructions for families on Tuition Assistance?

  This year, families will receive notification of their tuition assistance awards via the electronic re-enrollment contract. The contract will detail your award amount and your tuition balance. Please review your grant amount and tuition commitment for the 2023-2024 school year. By completing the enrollment contract with your electronic signature you are agreeing to pay the net tuition due.

• Q. What are my payment options for the enrollment deposit?

  Once you complete the contract process, you will be required to pay your deposit online immediately with a credit card or debit card. If you have concerns about this process or available options please contact Rafhia Foster, Director of Enrollment.

• Q. What credit cards do you accept?

  We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

• Q. Is there a fee for signing up for EFT?

  There is no fee for signing up for EFT.

• Q. Will I receive confirmation that my student is enrolled for the 2023-2024 school year?

  Yes. After you complete the enrollment contract, you will receive an automated email confirmation at the email address you have given to Shipley for school communications.

• Q. What if I have not provided an email address to Shipley for school communications?

  If we do not have an email address for you, we cannot send a confirmation email, but you can print a copy of the contract for your records from ShipleyNet.

• Q. Will I be able to print a copy of my signed contract for my records?

  Yes, you will be able to print the completed contract after you submit it. While logged into the website click on the dropdown next to your name and go to “Files & Forms.”

• Q. If I sign and return the online contract is my student officially enrolled for the 2023-2024 school year?

  Your student will be officially enrolled for the 2023-2024 school year once your deposit is paid, your electronic contract is submitted, and you have received a confirmation email.
