Financial Aid
St. Philip’s Academy aims to fund its operations solely off of tuition. Even with our competitive tuition, we recognize that assistance may be necessary for certain families, especially those who wish to enroll multiple children. St. Philip’s Academy offers needs-based tuition assistance, and we strongly encourage everyone who feels financially strained to apply.
In order to better serve families, those make our admission and financial aid deadlines will know how much aid they will be awarded before signing their tuition contract.
