This means that if you prepaid the $500 by August first, then only $150 will be due on registration day. Scholarships do not apply to the application or enrollment fee but can be credited to the next month’s tuition. Additional fees may apply for electives or group activities. Team sports participation, $200 per sport. Intramural sports are at no cost.

Financial Aid
Dakota Adventist Academy offers resources to help students and their families. We have several programs that do require the student to show financial need. We also have options that do not require applying for financial aid. Our programs include:
- Local church sponsorship with option of matching funds
- Private sponsorship
- Worthy Student Funding using TADS (this is income-based). For step by step instructions see the 2024-25 TADS How to Apply for FA. There is a $60 application fee. Applicants who are awarded financial aid will see the application fee as a credit on the student’s statement.
- Recruitment of a new student. DAA offers up to $1000 reward on for the successful recruitment of a new student by a current student/family
- Work study program. Students are offered the opportunity to work on campus to help with expenses.
For more information or a confidential conversation, please contact us by email or call 701-258-9000
Student Aid Application Process
- All families seeking student aid must first complete the TADs software application, including their 1040 and W-2 forms etc.
- Students receiving aid must work a minimum of 15 hours per month to remain eligible. Please keep a check on this with your child.
- Families will be asked to specify the highest dollar amount they can contribute towards tuition. This provides a more fair distribution of student aid.
- Parents are responsible for ensuring all applicable sponsorship forms are signed and submitted to complete enrollment.
Finance Committee Procedures
- The student will be allowed to enroll on financial probation for 30 days if all of the enrollment documents are not in place. If all documents are not in place at the end of 30 days, the school may move to discharge the student.
- The Finance Committee will convene monthly.
- Accounts 30 days past due will be referred to the Finance Committee which could result in a move to discharge the student
- All fees for sports, art, shop, robotics, photography etc. must be paid in cash before the student may participate.
- Church workers are generally not eligible for the 3-way or church match scholarships and will be determined by the Finance Committee
- Arrangements for past due balances from previous years must be made before completing the current year’s enrollment
