FINANCING A CARROLL EDUCATION

A Carroll School education is one of the best investments parents can make on behalf of their child, but with it comes a significant financial commitment. However, we are committed to providing options for families to make the possibility of attending The Carroll School a reality. Admission decisions are made without consideration to finances. Financial Aid materials are sent with all acceptances, and families are encouraged to be in contact with the Business Office at that time.

Financial aid awards are made on the basis of need. To make an unbiased determination of a family's need, The Carroll School uses the system of the School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS) based in Princeton, NJ. Families apply for financial aid each year, with preference being given to re-enrolling families.  To apply online or for further information, please visit http://sss.nais.org/ or call (800)344-8328. The mailing address is SSS by NAIS, PO Box 449, Randolph, MA 02368.

Families are encouraged to take advantage of the following financial options. A 10-month tuition payment plan is available through Tuition Management Systems. To apply online or for more information about the monthly payment plan, visit www.afford.com. An 18-84 month extended payment plan option is also available through Springstone Financial. To apply online or for more information about these fixed-rate education loans, visit www.yourtuitionsolution.com.

The Carroll School, Grades 2-8, is approved by the Massachusetts Department of Special Education as a Private Special Education School Program. Thus, the tuition for some students is funded by the town in which they live. We employ a school district coordinator to act on the school's behalf once a family is enrolled.
