MESSAGE FROM ROGER BILLINGS
Scholarship Tuition Rates
Students who are willing to commit to attending the live lecture over the Internet each week and are willing to be supportive in helping me improve Acellus are eligible to enroll in Acellus Academy at a significantly reduced tuition rate.
Some parents are looking for a quick way to obtain a high school diploma for their students. It is my goal to make Acellus Academy’s diploma a document having real credibility which will open doors and opportunities for graduates. I work very hard to prevent any student from the ability to circumvent learning by cheating the system. It is often necessary to make changes to Acellus to stop cheating. Doing so always upsets those involved.
This scholarship program will not be available to parents involved in publicly posting damaging and defaming attacks against Acellus or its staff. Parents are invited to contact me via my personal website, rogerbillings.com with any concerns or suggestions regarding ways to improve Acellus. I promise to do everything in my power to listen to ideas and concerns to seek resolution of problems, but to do so in a constructive and mutually respectful manner.
The Roger Billings Scholarship is provided subject to the availability of funds and the recipient’s adherence to the requirements listed above. Failure to comply will trigger re-evaluation of the scholarship and possible termination.
