Choosing a Stevens education is an investment in your child's future. We recognize that your decision to send your child to an independent school means a commitment to financial planning. The financial aid program is designed to help bridge the gap between what a family can afford and tuition. The financial aid program strives to build community that incorporates a diversity of culture, viewpoints and experiences and to provide access to a Stevens education to a wide socioeconomic range of families. Financial aid benefits all students in the school.

Applying for financial aid has no bearing upon the admission committee's deliberations and their assessment of an applicant’s potential as a Stevens student. Decisions regarding admission and eligibility for financial aid are made independently of one another but are generally presented to families at the same time. This allows families to make an informed decision when executing an enrollment contract.

Financial aid is in the form of need-based grants, which do not need to be repaid.

All applicants must complete a Financial Aid application through Clarity and file it online with the appropriate fee. 

September: Financial aid application opens. After completion, return to your dashboard to upload additional required tax documentation if necessary.

January 15: Financial aid applications must be complete, including all supporting documents and ready for review.

March 2:  Families receive a notification decision from the school. Contracts and financial aid decisions for newly accepted families are made available.

March 15: Contracts are due back to the school. 

Those applicants applying outside of the regular admissions cycle should contact the associate director of admissions and financial aid at allison.tabor@stevenscoop.org.

Before applying, please read Stevens Financial Aid Policy.
