Tuition & Financial Aid

At The Independent School, we believe a TIS education should be accessible to families from a wide range of backgrounds. We are committed to providing a student-centered experience with strong academics, meaningful relationships, and opportunities for each child to grow with confidence.

We also understand that tuition is an important part of a family’s decision-making process. Our tuition supports exceptional teachers, small class sizes, enriching programs, and a learning environment where students are known, challenged, and encouraged to participate fully.

Below, you will find tuition information along with details about our need-based financial aid program.

Financial Aid at TIS

TIS offers need-based financial aid to help make an Independent School education possible for families who qualify.

No Deadline. Rolling Review.

Financial aid applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and there is currently no fixed deadline to apply.

We encourage families to apply as soon as possible, as awards are made based on demonstrated need and available funds. Applying earlier gives families the best opportunity for full consideration and more time to plan for the school year.

How the Process Works

Families applying for financial aid will complete an application through FACTS and upload the required supporting documents, which typically include tax forms and other financial records.

Once all materials have been submitted, applications are reviewed and families are notified as decisions are made.

A Few Things to Keep in Mind

• Financial aid is need-based.
• Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
• There is no formal deadline to apply.
• Aid is awarded based on eligibility and available funds.
• We encourage families to apply early for the best consideration.
