Tuition and Affordability
We encourage all interested families to apply.
We recognize that an independent school education is a significant financial commitment, an investment that lasts a lifetime. To ensure that Mid-Pen is affordable for all admitted students, we offer a robust Tuition Assistance program which meets the needs of a wide range of financial circumstances.
We use the School and Student Services (SSS) financial aid system to evaluate and process all tuition assistance applications. Each application is evaluated on a case by case base basis, using a holistic approach to best consider every family’s unique financial situation.
Committee Process
Starting mid-February, our Tuition Assistance Committee reviews all completed tuition assistance files and makes decisions based upon each family’s demonstrated need using calculations from the tuition assistance application hosted by School and Student Services (SSS) and tax documents. The Committee may require additional documentation if more information is needed in order to understand a family’s financial situation.
