Financial Aid

Yes. Need-based financial aid is available to qualifying families across Pine Street School's programs, from Nursery through Grade 8, subject to available funds.

Financial aid is need-based and is awarded toward tuition. It is not a merit scholarship.

Financial aid is based on demonstrated financial need. Pine Street School considers the information families provide through Clarity, including household income, expenses, assets, liabilities, household size, and other relevant circumstances, then makes the final award decision using its own policies and available resources.

No. Clarity is the platform Pine Street School uses to collect and help assess financial information. Pine Street School makes the final financial aid decision.

Applying for financial aid does not change how Pine Street School assesses whether the program is the right educational fit for a child. Financial aid and admissions are reviewed through separate processes.

First submit the Pine Street School application through Ravenna and indicate that your family plans to apply for financial aid. Then create or access a Clarity account, select Pine Street School, complete the financial aid application, and provide any requested supporting documentation by the applicable deadline.

Pine Street School's Clarity school code is 2918. Families can select Pine Street School when prompted or enter the code if the school does not appear.

Clarity guides families through the required household and financial information. Families should be prepared to provide details about income, assets, liabilities, expenses, and household members. Clarity may also request tax verification or additional supporting documentation.

Clarity's process generally requires separate financial aid applications for separate households. Pine Street School may have additional requirements depending on a family's circumstances, so families should contact the Financial Aid Office with questions.

Clarity allows certain changes after submission as long as the school's deadline has not passed. If your financial situation changes materially after you apply, contact Pine Street School as well so the school can advise you on next steps.

Families are encouraged to apply by the published deadline because financial aid resources are limited. Late applications may be reviewed only if funds remain available, so contact the Financial Aid Office before submitting a late application.

Financial aid award decisions are released in tandem with admissions decisions.

Yes. Current families may apply according to Pine Street School's annual financial aid policies and deadlines. Families whose circumstances change unexpectedly should contact the Financial Aid Office to discuss their situation.
