St. Nicholas School values diversity in its school population. Families who feel they need assistance in funding a St. Nicholas education are encouraged to apply for financial aid. All decisions relative to financial aid are made independent of the admissions process and will not impact in any way a child’s possibility for admission. The St. Nicholas financial assistance program is open to students of any race, gender, color, national or ethnic origin.
St. Nicholas subscribes to the principles and services of School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS), which provides a financial analysis based on the confidential statement of need as noted on the Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS). SSS reports provide a point of departure for St. Nicholas in determining all final decisions on financial aid amounts.
Application forms for financial aid can be obtained through the St. Nicholas business office. The deadline for filing a financial aid application for consideration in the first round of allocations is Monday, February 2, 2009.
