The Tuition Assistance Committee reviews each complete application and considers the family’s financial need in relation to the school’s available assistance budget. Families are notified by email of the decision and award amount.
All Tuition Assistance applications, records, and decisions are kept confidential, and recipients are unknown by the school’s educational staff.
Talk with the tuition office
If cost is a concern, speak with the tuition office about the process and available options. Tuition assistance awards are moral scholarships, and recipients are encouraged to give back when they are financially able in the future.
