Pricing

Curriculum at cost, plus $39 a month for us.

When you start a plan, Quick Academy orders every course the survey matched you to — Denison, BJU, Easy Grammar, whatever fits — directly from the publisher. We charge you what they charge us, spread across the months of the year, and add a flat $39 a month for the packets, the calendar, the grade book and the transcript — $69 a month on an accelerated pace, where the same work is packed into about half the months. Free picks cost nothing and drop your total. Summer break (June 1 – August 15) is built in and never billed differently. You enroll one grade at a time, and each grade's curriculum is purchased for you and paid off in installments.

Illustration only. Your quote depends on the courses the survey matches you to. Curriculum at cost means the publisher's price plus any shipping, sales tax and publisher fees they charge us — no markup from Quick Academy.

What you are committing to

Choosing a long-term path does not commit you to years of Quick Academy. You enroll, and pay, one grade level at a time. When that grade is finished you choose again for the next grade.

Once Quick Academy purchases the curriculum for the grade you enrolled in, your family is responsible for the entire cost of that curriculum. Monthly payments are installments toward that purchase — they are not a month-to-month rental of the books, and stopping payments does not return the materials or cancel the balance.

The Quick Academy service fee — $39 per month on a standard pace, $69 per month on an accelerated pace, where a grade is finished in about half the time — covers the daily packets, calendar, grading tools and recordkeeping. On the monthly plan it is part of the installment agreement for the grade you enrolled in, so it is not cancel-anytime: it continues for every month of that grade's installment schedule, alongside the curriculum balance, until the grade-level package is paid in full.

You are only locked in for the grade you enrolled in. Once that grade's installments are paid off, nothing renews automatically — you decide whether to enroll in the next grade. Paying the grade in full up front ends the monthly billing immediately.

  • Curriculum balance — the delivered cost of this grade's books, including sales tax and two-week shipping. Owed in full once the books are ordered. Cancelling stops future grades, not this balance.
  • Quick Academy service ($39/mo standard pace, $69/mo accelerated) — billed with every installment for this grade and not cancellable mid-plan. It ends when the grade is paid off, or immediately if you pay the grade in full.

How the curriculum billing works

  • Take the survey — required for every plan. It picks a course per subject for the grade you are in.
  • We order those courses from the publishers when your plan starts, and ship anything physical to you.
  • Your monthly bill is exactly what the curriculum cost, divided over the year, plus the service fee ($39 standard, $69 accelerated). No markup on books.
  • Accelerated paces buy more than one grade of curriculum a year, so their monthly total is higher — the cost per grade is the same.
  • College tuition is billed separately by the college provider, financial aid included.
  • You choose a new plan at the end of each grade, so a long-term path never signs you up for years of Quick Academy at once — but the curriculum bought for the grade you are in is paid in full.

Quick Academy is a curriculum, planning and recordkeeping service for homeschooling families. It is not an accredited school and does not award an accredited diploma or degree. The parent or guardian remains the educational authority for the homeschool.

College degrees are awarded by the applicable accredited institution, not Quick Academy. Admission, tuition, financial aid, transfer and application of credits, degree requirements and graduation are all determined by that institution or provider.

How we talk about time

We never tell you how many hours a day school takes. Instead every item in a packet carries a time for that type of work, and older grades get a little longer per lesson. Do two lessons or ten — the packet is the plan, the clock is not.
