Tuition & Financial Aid

Tuition & Fees

As part of our mission, we challenge prejudice, respect difference, and recognize that multiple perspectives inform the human experience. To this end, we aim to enroll students from across the socioeconomic spectrum. Our tuition is inclusive: you will not find add-ons for textbooks, lab fees, or field trips. In addition, we award almost $4 million annually in need-based financial aid to over 19% of our student body.

The cost of bus transportation is discounted by the same percentage as tuition grants for families who receive financial aid. (Please note that the above rates are for the 2023-2024 school year. Rates for the 2024-2025 school year will be published later this year.)
