Financial Aid at Mid Cape Montessori
Financial aid
Mid Cape Montessori is committed to making a Montessori education accessible to families across our community. We offer need-based financial aid and hardship grants to help families who may not be able to afford full tuition. Aid is awarded annually and covers tuition only. Awards of up to 50% of tuition are available depending on demonstrated financial need.
Tuition that works for more families
We made a deliberate decision to set tuition at $12,000 per year — a level we believe reflects the true value of a Montessori education while keeping it within reach for more Cape Cod families.
Our goal has always been a socioeconomically integrated school, where a family's income doesn't determine whether their child has access to this kind of learning environment. By keeping tuition lower, fewer families need to rely on financial aid — and more families can simply enroll.
We want cost to be one less barrier between your child and an education that truly fits them. If you have questions about tuition or financial aid, we're always happy to talk — reach us at info@midcapemontessori.org
Payments are made over 10 months, September through June. Both parents' income is considered. Non-traditional income not reflected on tax returns must also be reported. Each family's situation is reviewed individually.

FINANCIAL AID FAQs
Is aid guaranteed year to year?
Aid is awarded on a one-year basis. Returning families must reapply each year. The committee prioritizes current aid recipients, but continued aid is not guaranteed — it depends on your family's current financial situation and available funds.
What does financial aid cover?
Aid covers tuition only. It does not apply to after care, extended year services, or other additional fees.
What happens if I miss a payment?
Financial aid will not be renewed for the following year if a family's account balance is not kept current on a monthly basis throughout the school year.
Can I apply for hardship aid mid-year?
Yes. We offer one-semester hardship grants for families experiencing unexpected financial difficulty. An extension beyond the initial semester requires resubmission by the coordinating deadline.
Is my information kept private?
Yes. Parent and student names are redacted before financial information is shared with the Finance Committee. Your application is reviewed with confidentiality.
