Financial Aid
Financial aid is available to families who demonstrate need. Please see the links below for financial aid application procedures. Applications for admissions are evaluated independently of financial aid applications. Those who do not apply for financial aid concurrently with their application for enrollment must wait two years before they are eligible. Application fees are waived for financial aid applicants.
Applying for Financial Aid as a Prospective Family
Applying for Financial Aid as a Current Family
Prospective parents seeking consideration for need-based financial assistance should complete the Tuition Data Service application and send a copy of the most recently filed federal tax return to the attention of Janine Tardieu no later than December 31 of the year prior to entry.
Current Saint David’s families seeking consideration for need-based financial assistance for the upcoming school year should complete the Tuition Aid Data Service application along with a letter detailing circumstances to the attention of Janine Tardieu by December 1 in advance of the re-enrollment process.
Financial aid recipients are subject to all due dates and late payment terms described above. Trip fees, After School program fees, and other school-related expenses will be billed at the same contribution rate as tuition.
