Tuition & Assistance

Trinity Prep allocates need-based assistance to families with demonstrated need, only. Disbursement of funds is contingent upon the results of a completed TADS application, tax returns, and review by Trinity's Tuition Assistance Committee. Tuition assistance is not a loan and is therefore not paid back to the school. 

All families seeking Trinity Prep assistance must file a TADS application. Trinity does not offer academic, athletic, or artistic merit-based scholarships.

In addition to need-based tuition assistance, Trinity Prep is fortunate to be able to allocate the below scholarships to students who meet the stipulated criteria. There is no application for these scholarships as students will be selected by Committee. Trinity Prep is so grateful to our generous supporters and donors who made these scholarships possible.

• Malone Scholars Program
• Brumback ‘91 Scholarship
• Maughan Scholarship
• Dickinson Scholarship
• Alumni Giving Fund

Applications for Tuition Assistance will be available October 21, 2019. While an application for assistance is optional, a family wishing to receive assistance must have begun their TADS application prior to completing their Admission application file.

For example:

Families meeting the Early Admission application deadline of December 13 must also have begun their application for assistance; families meeting the General Admission application deadline of February 22 must also have begun their application for assistance.

Trinity Prep may not be able to accommodate all tuition assistance applicants in a given year. Complete applications and required documents received in the Admissions Office by February 24, 2020 will receive first priority relative to assistance dollars available. 

Each year, Trinity Prep provides need-based Tuition Assistance to returning and new students in grades 6-12. Families must apply each year for assistance.

Additional fees may vary by grade and some are optional. Here are a few important ones:

Field trips in grades 6-10, 12: $200-$450
Books and e-books: $300-600
PE uniform in grades 6-9: $30
Trinity Parents Organization fee: $55
Pride pack fees for athletics: varies by sport
New student fee: $2,200

International fees may vary [international students do not qualify for tuition assistance.]

Does Trinity Prep accept state or federal scholarships, such as the AAA, Step-Up, or McKay scholarships?
- No, Trinity Prep does not accept state or federal scholarships.

Will my child's tuition assistance be the same every year?
- Families must apply for tuition assistance every year through TADS.com. Annual allocations are contingent upon review of a current application, available funds, and consideration of total requests for assistance. 

How should I apply as a single parent?
- Trinity believes that each custodial parent is responsible for financing their student’s education. As a result, financial information from all custodial parents is required. Custodial parents (regardless of legal settlements, who are divorced, separated, or never married) must submit their own Tuition Assistance application.
