How to Apply for Financial Aid

Thank you for your interest in Lowell School! We look forward to introducing you to our warm community of life-long learners. With a strong focus on diversity, Lowell is committed to providing an inclusive educational experience for as many qualified students as possible. We use the information you provide in this process to understand your unique financial circumstances and, because financial aid is 100% need-based, it is important to have a complete financial picture for your family. We appreciate the time and effort that goes into this application.

Submitting An Application

Lowell uses Clarity to process our financial aid applications. Click here to get started. The application opens on October 1 and is due on January 20, 2025. 

Prospective families who believe they might need financial aid at some point during their child’s tenure at Lowell should begin the financial aid application process along with their initial application for admission. Do not wait until your child has been admitted to apply for financial aid. Financial aid applications that are not submitted by the due date or are incomplete upon submission are only considered if/when funds become available.
 
We look forward to working with your family!
