  • Financial Aid Policies

    • Preliminary awards will be mailed to current families in February and to admitted applicants in March. Finalized awards will be mailed to current families in May after a review of 2019 tax information.
    • All parents—custodial and non-custodial, natural and stepparent—must submit completed information to Tuition Aid Data Services (TADS). Failure to do so may result in the School’s not granting financial aid. It is the position of St. Albans that all parents retain the obligation to contribute to the education of their children, whether or not there is a legal agreement between them to do so. The School expects each parent to contribute as much as calculations show they can afford, even if a divorce settlement stipulates a different amount.
    • The Financial Aid Committee receives financial aid recommendations from TADS based on a computerized systematic analysis of the family’s financial situation. The committee awards financial aid based upon the review of those recommendations.
    • Any student to whom financial aid is awarded can expect that aid to continue as long as he remains in good academic and disciplinary standing at St. Albans and provided his family continues to demonstrate need and is not in financial arrears. Application for assistance must be submitted annually.
    • Families with sons in the Upper School may receive a student loan as part of the total financial aid award.

  • Student Loan Program

    While the student is enrolled at St. Albans, no interest on the loan is charged. Interest at the rate of 6% shall be payable in advance and shall be billed quarterly on July 15, October 15, January 15, and April 15 of each year until the first payment of principal becomes due following the student’s departure.
    • Four years after graduation or departure from St. Albans, repayment of principal is expected to start.
    • Repayment of all principal and interest is to be completed within four years.
    • Loans made under this plan cover all or part of the need established through the school.
