Letters of acceptance or wait-listing will be mailed the first week in April, and signed contracts with enrollment deposits must be received by Bertschi School two weeks later. As part of the commitment to diversity, Bertschi School has established a program of financial aid for families who would otherwise be unable to consider Bertschi School as on option. To ensure that we are able to enroll children from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, the financial aid packages are personally constructed to meet the needs of individual family situations. No family should hesitate to apply to Bertschi School because of an inability to pay the full cost of a Bertschi education. If the educational philosophy and emphasis on cooperation and community appeals to you, please contact the Financial Aid Office.
Few families find it easy to cover tuition costs.
Most adjust their spending priorities, maximize both parents' earnings, and carefully manage assets to do so. Some will need financial assistance no matter how carefully they fine-tune family finances. The confidentiality of information provided is carefully maintained. You complete the financial aid application form and mail it to Princeton, New Jersey, for initial processing. Bertschi's financial aid administrator then uses the results as a guide in allocating aid based on need.
