Financial Aid

The Financial Aid Program at Grace Episcopal School assists qualified students who demonstrate financial need as determined by Grace’s Financial Aid Committee. The Committee is guided by an impartial third party system, School & Student Services, a comprehensive financial aid assistant program. Currently, we award financial aid to over 23 percent of our families. Requests for financial aid are not a factor in the admissions decision process. Please contact our Director of Admissions to begin the discussion on making Grace an affordable option for your child’s education.

All financial aid information is confidential.
