Financial Aid

With a commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive community, Moorestown Friends School offers financial aid to qualified students in grades 1-12. Applying for financial aid in no way affects the admission decision. Financial aid is awarded on the basis of financial need, and over one fourth of our enrolled students receive some financial aid..

Please read the following instructions carefully because the process this year will be noticeably different than previous years.  Also, our deadline date has changed, and to be eligible for consideration for financial aid, you must complete your application (which includes your 2009 W-2 forms, 1040, and 4506-T) by April 1, 2010.  We will communicate decisions about financial aid by May 1, 2010.

The National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) service School and Student Services (SSS) is used to process financial aid applications.  Based on the financial information you provide, SSS gives us an estimated amount your family can contribute to educational expenses.  This helps us make fair and objective financial aid decisions.  To begin your financial aid application for the 2010-11 school year, follow the steps below.  Call SSS at 800.344.8328 with any questions (Mon-Fri: 9am-8pm EST; Sat: 9am-4pm EST).

ONLINE

• Go to sss.nais.org.
• Click on the prompt to begin your Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS).  You only have to complete one PFS even if you have several children applying to our school.  For parents who are separated or divorced or have never been married, the noncustodial parent must also complete a separate PFS.
• You will be given a password that will allow you to return to your PFS at a later date before submitting it.
• You will be given instructions about submitting copies of required backup documents (1040 income tax return(s), all schedules submitted to the IRS with the 1040, both parents’ W-2 forms, Business and Farm Statement – if applicable,  and the IRS form #4506-T) by mail directly to SSS.  Your documents will be handled with the utmost level of security.  To read more about SSS’s document security, go to sss.nais.org. 
• Mail the required documents to: SSS by NAIS, Application Processing Center, P.O. Box 449, Randolph, MA 02368-0449. 

Note:  If you apply for financial aid online, your information will be delivered more quickly to our school.

BY MAIL

• Call the Admissions Office (856.235.2900, ext. 228) for a printed Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS).
• Complete the PFS and return it and all required backup documents to: SSS by NAIS, Application Processing Center, P.O. Box 449, Randolph, MA 01268-0449.

We would like to do everything possible to make a Moorestown Friends School education available to your child.  Since financial aid decisions are being made in April, it is to your benefit to submit the required information by the April 1, 2010 deadline.

For more information, contact the Admissions Office via e-mail or by phone at 856-235-2900.
