FINANCIAL AID

Financial Aid is available for students in the Pre-Professional and Professional Programs. We are unable to offer financial aid for students in the Preschool Program. The application is open now for the 2025-2026 school year.

  • Applications are not considered until the student has registered for the 2025-2026 Academy Year.
  • Applications may take up to one month for review. Decisions will be sent by email.
  • Financial assistance is not automatically renewed from previous Academy years. If you applied for financial aid for the 2025 Summer Programs, you do not need to submit an additional application.
