AYO awarded $38,400 in scholarships during the 2024-25 school year.

AYO strives to offer financial assistance to every student in need. Tuition is our largest source of income, so the amount we can award is limited. For the 2025-26 School Year, AYO will be awarding at least $40,000 in scholarships. As grant applications are submitted and accepted, we expect that number to grow drastically. 

When you enroll your student in classes with AYO, you will be given an opportunity to apply for a scholarship. Scholarships are awards on a first-come-first serve basis. 

We offer four tiers of scholarships to our students depending on their financial need:

25% scholarship:

50% scholarship:

75% scholarship:

100% scholarship:
