Arizona Tuition Connection

About Arizona Tuition Connection

Arizona Tuition Connection Inc focuses on Arizona K–12 private school scholarships, and its recent grant records show a large, school-paid scholarship flow across the state. In 2024, the foundation’s biggest reported awards went to Notre Dame Preparatory High in Scottsdale, Valiant College Preparatory in Phoenix, and Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix, all labeled scholarship awards. That pattern fits the organization’s role as a School Tuition Organization that helps families access private school tuition assistance through tax-credit donations, including donor-directed funds and low-income corporate scholarships. The grant list also shows support for schools serving different student populations, from Catholic preparatory schools and Montessori programs to schools identified with scholarship support in Tucson, Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, Goodyear, and Paradise Valley. Arizona Tuition Connection Inc also operates targeted scholarship streams for students with disabilities, displaced students, foster children, Native American students, and low- and moderate-income families. Its giving is tightly tied to tuition support rather than broad discretionary grants, with payments generally sent to private schools on behalf of eligible students.

What Arizona Tuition Connection Funds

Arizona Tuition Connection Inc’s work centers on tuition assistance rather than general operating support. The active programs show several ways it channels tax-credit donations into K–12 private school scholarships, including a general scholarship stream, a School Tuition Organization scholarship program, and tax-credit scholarships with donor recommendations allowed where permitted by law. The foundation also uses targeted scholarship designs. Through the Imagine a Better Arizona initiative, it seeks corporate participation for scholarships serving low-income and foster children, Native American students, and students with disabilities. A separate Disabled / Displaced Corporate Scholarship Program serves displaced students and students with disabilities. It also runs a Tax Credit Giving Day matching program that converts qualifying donations into low-income corporate scholarships. One additional program awards a $10,000 tuition payment in drawings for students at the International School of Arizona.
