St. Margaret’s is proud to offer a strong and supportive need-based financial aid program. For the 2022-23 Academic year, over 4.5 million dollars in need-based grants were awarded to enrolling students. We believe that having a diverse and equitable school is at the core of our institutional values. We see financial aid as a St. Margaret’s community strength. Our goal is to engage and guide capable and talented students from all socioeconomic backgrounds and make the opportunities of St. Margaret’s accessible to all.

We encourage families to preview our financial aid application process listed below, and to contact our Office of Admission & Financial Aid at any time with follow up questions.  We are here to support your family, and we look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

Phoebe F. Larson,
Director of Admission, Financial Aid & Enrollment Management

Families are encouraged to apply for admission as well as need-based financial aid. After admission decisions are determined, completed financial aid applications are considered by the St. Margaret’s Financial Aid Committee. Need-based grants are awarded to families at the time of Admission.

St. Margaret's is a member of School and Student Services for Financial Aid (SSS). SSS utilizes national methodology to calculate a family's financial need. This methodology assists St. Margaret's in determining a family's financial ability to contribute towards the cost of tuition. The Financial Aid Committee carefully evaluates the income and assets of each family applying for aid and awards financial assistance according to demonstrated need.

All need-based financial aid awards are reviewed and recalculated each year. Families are asked to re-submit updated financial aid application information and annual tax information. Please know, all of St. Margaret's financial assistance is confidential and based upon a family’s needs, the school does not offer any athletic nor arts scholarships.
