Tuition Assistance
Deerfield-Windsor School is committed to making a DWS education accessible to qualified students and offers a limited amount of need-based tuition assistance.
Tuition assistance is awarded based on a family's demonstrated financial need as determined through the FACTS Grant & Aid application process. Families must complete the online application and submit their most recent Federal Income Tax Return (Form 1040). The application fee is $35.
Families are encouraged to apply as early as possible. Priority consideration for current DWS families is given to applications submitted by March 15. Tuition assistance awards are granted on a one-year basis, and families must reapply annually.
DWS follows a need-blind admissions process and does not consider financial need when making admissions decisions. All financial information is kept strictly confidential.
