2021/2022 Tuition & Fees
Tuition Assistance
The McGillis School remains committed to building a diverse and inclusive community.
Our tuition assistance budget for the 2020/2021 school year totals $650,000 and was distributed to 25% of our students. Applying for tuition assistance has absolutely no impact on admission decisions. Our goal is to support families who demonstrate financial need, which is calculated using the School & Student Services for Financial Aid (SSS).
By determining what each family can contribute to tuition, the Committee allocates awards ranging from $1,500 to $11,000 and average $6,000 depending on each applicant’s financial situation.
