Tuition Payment Schedule:

  • Tuition Deposit: due with contract
    $700 per student for all grades
  • Balance of Tuition: Balance to be paid based on Payment Plan selected from options below.

Payment Plan Options:

  • Annually: Tuition balance due no later than May 22.
  • Semi-Annually: Tuition is paid in equal installments no later than May 22 and October 22. A $140 credit fee is added to the second payment.
  • Monthly: Tuition balance is paid in 11 equal installments through a bank-draft authorization, beginning in May and ending in April. There is not a January bank draft since other fees/deposits are due at the same time. A $240 fee is charged to cover the costs of processing and interest. To indemnify the School in case of student withdrawal, the cost of tuition insurance (2.8% of tuition) is due with the May tuition payment. With this option, you are required to participate in the Tuition Refund Insurance Plan.

Other fees, including yearbooks and voluntary PTF memberships, are billed separately. Elementary textbooks are included in the tuition, while Middle School and High School textbooks are purchased through the Saint Shop.

ESS Fees:
An additional tuition fee ($3,900 for elementary and $2,900 for middle/high school) will be assessed for each student enrolled in the ESS Program (Educational Support Services). This is a program for students with mild learning differences. The courses a student takes will be determined by school personnel.

Tuition Assistance:
Tuition Assistance is available to those who qualify by evaluation through the School Scholarship Service in Princeton, N.J. After the report of qualification for assistance is recieved from the SSS, grants are made according to a predetermined standard percentage on a first-come first-served basis. Tuition Assistance forms are available in the Business Office.

Tuition Assistance is not offered to Preschool and Junior Kindergarten students.

In order to be eligible to continue to receive need-based tuition assistance, a student must maintain a cumulative 2.0 GPA at Briarcrest.
