Financial Aid

Affording Sheridan

For families receiving financial aid, support goes even further than the benefits of our inclusive tuition. Families who receive financial aid for tuition are offered the same percentage of financial support for after-school care in Ex-Club, as well as a discounted rate for enrichment classes such as private music or instrumental lessons. We also offer reduced or free tickets to community events such as the annual gala and Mountain Campus Family Weekend.

Financial aid makes Sheridan possible for more than 30% of our students.

Financial aid awards at Sheridan are based primarily on demonstrated financial need as determined by a streamlined assessment performed by Clarity, and availability of funds approved annually by the Sheridan Board of Trustees. The complexity of the financial aid formula means we cannot provide analysis or prediction without a full application, but we encourage all families who believe that they may be eligible to apply.

Each family’s need for tuition assistance is recalculated annually. Any Sheridan family may apply for financial aid in any given school year, even if they have never before received financial aid from the school.
