We use the formula for need established by the NAIS School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS) as a guideline for determining a family’s financial aid award.
Merit scholarships are available.
Aid for Quaker boarding students is available.
The deadline for Financial Aid is January 15th. Applications after this date may be considered but Westtown’s ability to provide an award will be constrained.

Aid for International Students is rare and requires separate documentation.
