Financial Aid
Geneva has a strong commitment to providing need based financial aid to our students. Our Financial Aid program provides assistance to students to the extent of our annual budget for financial aid. After our Admissions Committee accepts an applicant to Geneva School, financial aid awards are made based on a family’s demonstrated need and the availability of funds.

Our Process
As with many independent schools, Geneva School uses the School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS) to assist our Financial Aid Committee in determining awards.

It is important to note that SSS does not determine the amount of financial aid awarded, but merely assists Geneva School in determining a family's ability to contribute. Award decisions are made by our Financial Aid Committee based on the Parents' Financial Statement submitted to SSS as well as additional factors and special circumstances. Awards are distributed according to our budget for financial aid. Notification of awards will be sent with our enrollment decision letter. We encourage all those interested in Financial Aid to begin the process as early as possible when applying for enrollment.

How to Apply
  • Apply by submitting a Parents' Financial Statement (PFS) online beginning November 15. If you do not have internet access, please contact us for a PFS form to submit directly to SSS. You will need the Geneva School code, 3576, for line 7A on the PFS.
