As these dates vary from year to year, the annual admissions supplement includes the current notification dates. If an applicant is interviewed at his or her present school, a separate tour will be offered to parents. Dalton reviews the status of all applications each month. If a file is incomplete, the Admissions Office will inform the parents of applicants indicating the information needed to complete the admissions process. We ask First Program applicants to wait until January to check the status of an application.
Awards range from partial to almost full tuition assistance.
An application for financial aid will not prejudice an application for admission. Decisions regarding amounts of financial assistance are determined by the Financial Aid Committee after the student is accepted. Families seeking financial aid must apply at the time of submission of their child's admissions application. Requests for financial aid made at a later date will only be considered if there are significant changes in the family's circumstances. All financial aid decisions are made on the basis of need and merit.
