  • Where graduates go: #3 feeder school to Georgia Tech; top 10 for Georgia. Mt. Paran Christian School Inc.'s own list (Class of 2025), enrolled: Kennesaw State University (10), Auburn (9), Georgia (9), Georgia Tech (7), Berry College (6). Feeder standing: #1 Auburn, #1 Samford, #3 Georgia Tech, #4 University of Alabama (Tuscaloosa), #5 Georgia.
  • Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.

Composed from this page's data — every claim is backed by a number in the sections below.

The in-state tuition gap is the flagship's biggest draw — most in-state families pay far less than the out-of-state sticker. Average net price after aid runs about $13,936/yr. Admission odds depend on your student's GPA and test scores, not which high school they attend.

Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 1,149 in 2018 to 1,088 in 2022 — over 4 years.
-5.3%
Why only 3 data points?

Private school enrollment comes from the NCES Private School Universe Survey (PSS), which is collected every other year — not annually like public-school data. The most recent published collection is 2021–22; NCES targeted spring 2026 for the 2023–24 release — we'll load it as soon as it's published.

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of -1.4%/year, projecting from 2022's 1,088 students:

2023
1,073
2025
1,044
2027
1,016

≈ 72 fewer students by 2027 — a real revenue/relevance risk worth getting ahead of.

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.

Revenue at risk

At tuition per student, the 72 students projected to be lost by 2027 represent ≈ $1,152,000/year in tuition at risk.

Tuition is an editable estimate (PSS doesn't publish tuition) — set it to your school's figure.
