2024-2025 Tuition Rates

From our inception, St. Edmund’s Academy has been committed to, in the words of our founders, “moderate tuition, small classes, outstanding teachers, and high academic standards.” Families make sacrifices—big and small—to send their children to a school of this caliber. We take that responsibility to our families very seriously.

Tuition rates listed below cover all instructional and community expenses including textbooks, technology fees, athletic fees, activity fees, laboratory fees, field trips, overnight trips, school supplies for Early Childhood and Lower School students, parent association fees, and yearbooks. We have elected to limit costs in addition to tuition so families can best prepare and plan for the long-term investment in their children’s future with a complete understanding of the associated costs.

Financial Aid

Our school's commitment to diversity includes families from various socioeconomic situations.  While primary responsibility for funding a child's education lies with families, we are proud to offer financial assistance to approximately 40% of our students.  All awards are based on financial need, as determined by a third-party financial service that considers family income, assets, dependents, and other extenuating factors that impact a family's ability to pay tuition.

Financial aid applications for the 2024-2025 school year will be available for completion beginning on October 1, 2023.

The St. Edmund’s Academy Financial Aid program is designed to make an SEA education possible for all families based on demonstrated financial need and the availability of funds.

St. Edmund’s Academy uses the Clarity Application to determine a family’s level of financial need based on the information that families share in the application which includes assets, income, expenses, and debts.

The deadline for completing the financial aid application including relevant supplemental documents is December 15, 2023, for families returning to SEA and January 15, 2024 for families that will be new to SEA for the 2024-2025 school year.

All tuition payments are made through Blackbaud Tuition Management

With Blackbaud Tuition Management, you may choose to pay tuition online or to set up recurring automatic payments from your bank account or credit card. You may also choose to receive a monthly invoice and pay tuition by check; payments made by check will go directly to Smart Tuition’s payment processing center and be applied to your account.  Your family’s tuition statement, transaction details, payment history, and account information is accessible on your Smart Tuition account.
