Least Expensive Tuition
Among "All Schools," view the twenty boarding schools with the "least expensive tuition." First, some important notes:

  • Another factor to consider when evaluating the affordability of a school is the the average size of financial aid grants that a school provides.

  • Schools with higher tuition costs may actually turn out to be less expensive depending on how much aid a school can offer (which is also dependent on your family's financial circumstances and eligibility to receive aid).
