Tuition and Financial Aid at Poly
Investing in an independent school education is an important decision that requires planning and consideration. We understand family concerns about affordability and are here to assist you as you plan your child’s educational journey. Please note that financial aid at Poly is solely based on need. We do not offer merit-based scholarships for academics, athletics, or arts.
For the 2025-2026 academic year, over 23% of the students share in more than $14,500,000 in financial aid.

Financial Aid
Financial aid is critical to Poly Prep’s mission, providing access to families who would not otherwise be able to afford tuition. Our Financial Aid program extends beyond the cost of tuition. We want all students, regardless of economic status, to have a full educational experience and take advantage of all that Poly Prep has to offer.
