Financial Aid
In order to make high-quality Christian education available to more families, Westminster has partnered with Smart Aid as an effective and fair way to allocate financial aid monies.
Smart Aid provides a data-driven, supported, objective calculation of how much a family can afford to pay for the education of their children. Smart’s comprehensive analysis is unbiased and identifies what a parent’s financial commitment to private education can and should be.
We accept financial aid applications for the upcoming school year between January 1st and March 31st of each year.
New applicants to Westminster should contact Erica Hammond, Director of Admissions, prior to applying for financial aid.
