FINANCIAL AID FOR DOMESTIC BOARDING STUDENTS
An independent boarding school education is a considerable investment for some families. We encourage families who have concerns about affording tuition and fees at the Priory to explore applying for financial aid. In the 2019-2020 school year, the Priory awarded over three million dollars in need-based grants. Approximately 20% of Priory families receive financial aid.
Woodside Priory School joins many other boarding schools by using School and Student Services (SSS) to facilitate the financial aid application process. To begin the financial aid application process, families should create an account with SSS by visiting solutionsbysss. com/parents after October 1. Additional instructions are available on our website, www.prioryca.org.
Priory awards financial aid based on the guidelines and methodology established by SSS and within the limitations of our budget and financial aid policies. Our financial aid program also considers other costs required to attend the Priory, including books and field trips. Please
note that Woodside Priory School does not award any merit or athletic scholarships. Unfortunately, financial aid is not available for international students at this time.
Families with additional questions about our financial aid program are invited to contact the Director of Admissions and Financial Aid.
