Financial aid is critical to Poly Prep’s mission, providing access to families who would not otherwise be able to afford tuition. In 2021-2022, our financial aid budget is over $10 million and we are committed to meeting family needs. In a typical year, we are able to offer tuition support to a percentage of families who qualify for aid, though we receive significantly more requests than we are able to fulfill. Families applying to all grades may submit a separate application for financial aid through TADS.
