Financial Aid Information: The Richmond Friends School Scholarship Committee offers aid to qualified students on the basis of financial need of the family and the availability of funds. Scholarship decisions are made following the admissions process. Applying for financial aid does not in any way affect an applicant’s selection. Richmond Friends School seeks students from every race, creed, nationality, and social or economic background.
Scholarship awards are funded by gifts from private individuals and Friends Meetings. These funds are limited. The Richmond Friends School board and staff work hard at increasing the amount of incoming scholarship funds every year. A Richmond Friends School education is an investment in your child’s future. You will undoubtedly have to make some sacrifices. There are options available to help you meet school expenses, such as a monthly payment plan that we offer and long-term educational loans through your local bank. Feel free to talk with our Head of School about your options.
Application Instructions: We are simplifying our financial aid application process for the 2024-2025 academic year. Parents/Guardians will now upload their W-2 form or other tax documents to Quickschools under the documents section. We will use family size and income to determine aid awarded. Please email schoolcoordinator@richmondfriendsschool.org to notify us that your tax documents have been uploaded and ensure we know the number of members in your immediate family. The priority deadline for submitting this paperwork for the 2024-2025 academic year is March 29th.
If your child is a new student enrolling at Richmond Friends School, please attach your financial materials to your application then email schoolcoordinator@richmondfriendsschool.org to let us know you have applied for aid.
Submission of the Scholarship Application by the March 29 deadline does not guarantee that an award will be granted by the Scholarship Committee.
