Financial Aid and Scholarships
- Percentage of Students Receiving Financial Assistance: 49%
- Average Grant per Student: $12,000
The Heights is committed to a quality-driven admissions process that provides access to a Heights education for as many deserving boys as possible. The Heights uses need-based aid and scholarships to make attendance possible for qualified students who would not otherwise be able to do so for financial reasons. Need-based aid and scholarships also ensure a student body that reflects a broad social and economic mix. Financial aid is intended to supplement a family’s own resources, and recipients range from families whose ability to pay school costs is extremely limited, to families who may need only a minor subsidy to meet our tuition requirements.
Begin our FACTS Financial Aid Application Process here.
Learn more about grants at our Financial Aid Orientation at 7:30pm on Tuesday, December 10th.
We are very pleased to offer two Upper School scholarships: The Cavalier Scholarship and the Blatty Scholarship. Both awards are need and merit-based, and will be awarded to applicants who demonstrate academic promise, moral character, and the zeal and spirit of a future Heights leader.
- Every qualified applicant for financial aid will be automatically considered for these Scholarships.
- The Blatty Scholarship funds three students at a time, and thus is only offered three out of every four years.
