Waynflete and SSS believe a family has the primary obligation to finance their child’s education. When offering tuition assistance, the School’s intent is to meet each family’s demonstrated need as much as available funds allow.
School and Student Services (SSS) initially provides Waynflete with an objective, holistic analysis of a family’s need. By filing a Parents' Financial Statement (PFS), the SSS methodology is an important starting point for the School. Variables include household earnings, assets, debt, number of children in a tuition-charging school, age of parents, and national economic factors.
The Waynflete Tuition Assistance Committee individually assesses a family’s financial situation. In addition to the SSS guidelines, assessment by the Committee is completed with degrees of professional judgement and in accordance with the School’s mission and policies.
