State of Minnesota Waiver Program

Third-party funding options may be available through the State of Minnesota and/or county resources, such as waivers through Consumer Directed Community Supports (CDCS) to assist with paying tuition and program fees for attending Franklin Capstone. Franklin Center’s Finance Department will work with families, participants and the Financial Management Service (FMS) provider to make sure everyone has the information needed to ensure a smooth process for Capstone program payments.  Please click here to read more about this process.

Tuition Assistance

Franklin Capstone accepts students for admission without regard to their financial status. If assistance is needed, we base that decision on the amount of need and available funding.

Franklin Academy is proud to use the Clarity Application to determine a family’s level of financial need based on the information that families share in the application which includes assets, income, expenses, and debts.

To get started, please go to the Clarity Application and create an account. The application typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete. The Clarity Application is also mobile-friendly so you can complete it from anywhere. You are also able to save your progress and return at any time. At the end of the application, there is a $60 fee to submit, and you can share your application with additional schools that accept the Clarity Application for no additional charge. Simply use the dropdown menu in the application to select those schools.

If you need support during the process of completing your application, there is in-app support available through the “Help” button in the bottom left of the screen, as well as email and phone support at support@clarityapp.com or 206-210-3752, in both English and Spanish. The application itself is also fully translated into Spanish.

Please note: Application for tuition assistance should happen after an application for admissions has been submitted and a tour/meeting with the Capstone staff has been coordinated.
