The Manitou School is committed to making an exceptional education accessible to a wide community of students. We recognize that a Manitou education is a significant investment in your child’s future, and we are dedicated to helping as many families as possible afford this educational choice.

To that end, Manitou offers need-based financial aid for Elementary and Middle School students. We do not offer financial aid for preschool. As we are still a very small school, our financial aid is limited and currently comes directly from our operations budget.

The application is hosted through Clarity, an online form that calculates the estimated family contribution toward tuition based on each family’s unique financial situation. We award financial aid according to demonstrated financial need and available funds.

If you’d like to apply for financial aid, please indicate this on your admissions application. You’ll receive a link to the financial aid application after you submit your application questionnaire.

For full consideration, please submit your standard application questionnaire by February 5, 2027 at the latest, and your financial aid application by February 15, 2027.
