Expenses

Mountain School tuition for the 2008-'09 academic year is $20,195 per semester.  In addition, students establish an incidental account of $450 to cover the cost of books, entertainment, and miscellaneous expenses. We require that our students be covered by some type of health insurance: A half-year plan can be obtained through Milton Academy, which also offers elective accident and tuition-refund insurance.

Financial Aid

We continue to be need-blind in our admissions decisions, and we encourage those who are in need of aid to apply for financial assistance. To estimate a family's ability to pay, the Mountain School relies on a system developed by the School Financial Aid Services Committee, a standing committee of the National Association of Independent Schools. Those who need additional aid and those not receiving aid at their home schools should request a financial aid packet by answering the appropriate question on the application form. This packet must be returned to the Mountain School by March 15th. The financial aid grants are mailed in late April.
