Financial need is defined as the difference between what is costs to attend Sacred Heart Greenwich and a family’s ability to pay. The Report of Family Contribution is sent to Sacred Heart by SSS, and it provides the School with a general assessment of a family’s ability to pay for education. Major factors in determining financial need include, but are not limited to, income, assets (including home, equity, college funds, and investments), family size, and the number of children attending tuition-charging institutions, excluding daycare, preschool, and graduate school.
