Admission, Tuition and Financial Aid

The admissions process involves the following steps:

  • Submit initial application (including a $75 non-refundable fee).  Although admission is based upon many factors, an earlier date of application can be to your advantage.
  • Arrange an hour-long parent/child visit to learn about the program, observe the classrooms, and see the school. (optional)
  • Schedule a visit for your child to spend a full day at The Schoolhouse.
  • A student transferring from another school should submit a reference from his/her current teacher.
  • Submit the enrollment contract, financial aid application and a non-refundable $300 deposit ($150 if you are applying for financial aid).

Admissions decisions are made on an ongoing basis.

Financial Aid

The Schoolhouse offers financial aid to families based on financial need and the number of families who apply.   Families are asked to submit an online application for financial aid online at www.factstuitionaid.com. Using FACTS helps to ensure confidentiality and objectivity in financial aid awards. Financial aid decisions are made by the Financial Aid Committee that is comprised of the Head of School, the Treasurer and another member of the Board of Directors.
