Financial Aid Program

Participation in certain optional activities carry costs for which financial aid may not be available or may be limited. We make every effort to ensure that all students can participate fully in the life of the School. Parents are welcome to inquire about assistance with any expense that poses a burden.

Yes. Financial aid grants must be renewed annually. If your family’s financial circumstances do not change in a significant way, you can expect to receive a similar level of assistance each year.

No! Waiting may jeopardize your chance to receive a grant, even if you qualify for aid. Observe the deadlines for the financial aid application process to ensure that funds are available for your daughter when she receives an offer of admission.

No, members of the Admissions Committee are not aware of who is applying for financial aid. Financial aid applications are reviewed after admissions decisions have been made.

All financial information is treated as highly confidential. Only the Financial Aid Committee will see this information, and only the Business Office will see the award amount. Division Directors and faculty members are not privy to any financial materials, nor are they aware of which students receive financial aid.

Holton-Arms School does not offer sibling discounts. Having more than one child in tuition-charging schools is an important factor in determining whether a family is eligible for assistance. We encourage any family with multiple children for whom paying full tuition is a challenge to apply for financial aid.

At this time, we do not have a merit award program.
