Tuition Assistance

In an effort to keep our community socio-economically diverse, we strive to accommodate as many requests for tuition assistance as possible. Award amounts are based on assessment of a family’s financial picture , including income/expenses, assets, family size, etc., and evaluated by a second party company, FACTS, and our tuition assistance processor, Mission Enrollment. Our Tuition Assistance Committee reviews all applications processed by FACTS and makes financial assistance award decisions annually. Beginning December 1 of each year, one may apply for tuition assistance via Summerfield’s website under the Admissions tab. For those who are newly applying, tuition assistance grants are usually announced in conjunction with decision letters.

Please Note: With the exception of the 5-Day Kindergarten program, ECE Programs are not eligible for tuition assistance.
