Financial Aid

Welcome to Blake's financial aid home page. We invite you to investigate the resources available to support your interest in a Blake education. In 2009–10, the School has awarded $3.3 million dollars in need-based aid to students in grades pre-kindergarten through 12. Blake meets 100 percent of demonstrated need — the calculated difference between the amount a family can be expected to contribute to the cost of the student's education and the cost of annual tuition, books and fees.

Financial aid at Blake is not accidental or an afterthought. Quite the contrary, it is central to our mission to "provide students with an excellent, academically challenging education in a diverse and supportive community committed to a common set of values." Financial aid is a vehicle designed to help us realize our mission of a "diverse and supportive community" and is used to bring economic diversity to Blake. Without it the discussions in classrooms, interactions with students and teachers and the ability of our students to become responsible world citizens would not evolve. Financial support for students is also available so that all students are able to participate in our "integrated program of academic, artistic and athletic activities," ensuring a complete and stimulating extracurricular experience at Blake.
