Question 1

Does Gateway really cost nothing out-of-pocket?

Accepted Answer

Tuition is $0 out-of-pocket through Arizona ESA for qualifying students — most families qualify through an autism diagnosis or a current IEP.

Question 2

How long does ESA take?

Accepted Answer

Plan on roughly 30 days for the Arizona Department of Education to process an ESA application, so it's best to start early. Our team helps you move it along.

Question 3

Does my student's diagnosis qualify?

Accepted Answer

Most Gateway families qualify through an autism diagnosis or a current IEP. Bring recent documentation and we'll talk specifics.

Question 4

What if we miss the ESA window?

Accepted Answer

ESA is available year-round, and Gateway has rolling admissions. Talk to admissions, our team can help you navigate timing.

Question 5

Are there extra fees?

Accepted Answer

We're upfront about any costs in your admissions conversation. No surprise fees buried in fine print.

Question 6

Can you just tell us the tuition number?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, admissions will share this year's published rate directly. We just like to pair it with what your family would actually pay, which is usually far less.
