Tuition Support for High School Students in Texas

Excel High School is an approved education provider for the Texas Education Freedom Account (TEFA) program. TEFA gives eligible Texas families the opportunity to use state-directed education funds toward private education expenses, including tuition at Excel High School.  If your student qualifies, TEFA funds may be applied toward our accredited, 100% online, self-paced high school program, allowing students to learn on their own schedule while working toward a recognized U.S. high school diploma.

Parents apply for TEFA directly through the State of Texas, not through schools. The application window for the 2026–27 school year runs from February 4 through March 17, 2026. Funding is limited, and approval is determined by the state.

Eligibility, funding amounts, and award decisions are determined by the State of Texas.

Your Path to a Fully Supported Online Education

Most students who qualify for state-funded tuition are automatically enrolled in our Platinum Tier Tuition Package, which offers the highest level of support at no cost to families. This all-inclusive package covers full tuition.

With access to all available course options—including Standard, Honors, and Advanced Placement (AP)—students can tailor their learning to fit their goals. Enrollment also includes our  ElevatEd  program, which goes beyond academics to foster personal growth through guided enrichment in resilience, goal setting, mindset development, and future planning.

From flexible pacing to personalized enrichment, the Platinum Tier ensures every student receives a structured, supportive, and fully accredited online high school experience.
