FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Army and Navy Academy represents a tremendous step toward your student’s future success. We expect families to contribute to their student’s education to the best of their financial ability, but we also believe that enrollment should be available to highly qualified applicants who cannot afford full tuition. We are committed to building a diverse student body with unique talents, perspectives, and strengths.

The Academy has partnered with Clarity Financial Aid to ensure that our financial assistance process is comprehensive, fair, and accurate to maximize our impact. We use Clarity to help us understand your ability to contribute to your student’s educational costs.

Every request for need-based assistance is unique. When evaluating these requests, the Academy’s Financial Assistance Committee reviews your family’s financial picture along with your student’s full academic record, disciplinary history, and level of commitment to attend our school. Requests for need-based financial aid are considered only after a prospective family has completed their application, enrollment contract, and initial deposit.

APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL AID

The Clarity Application for Financial Aid is a streamlined and user-friendly way for families to securely share key information. When analyzed by Clarity’s software, schools are able to make financial aid determinations based on their budget, policies, and mission. Most families are able to complete the Clarity Application in less than 30 minutes. The Application is also mobile-friendly and does not need to be completed in a single sitting; you can always save your progress and return later.

  • Go to https://auth.clarityapp.com/en/signup/ to create your account.
  • Start with household & applicant information. Select the school(s) to which you are applying. Sign and submit a Form 4506c to give Clarity permission to pull your prior year tax returns. This means you won’t need to upload any of them yourself!
  • Complete your financial information, including income, expenses, assets, and debts.
  • The app fee is $60 per household and covers all the Clarity schools to which you are applying. Schools may require additional documents in addition to last year’s taxes.
  • Check the “Document Requests” panel on your portal to see what you need to upload.

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

  • To the best of your ability, enter accurate information on assets such as bank accounts, investment portfolios, home value, and balances on car loans, student loans, etc. You might need to grab some paperwork or log into some accounts to have that info handy.
  • Be sure to consider all of your monthly and annual expenses, and include any additional
    expenses (not already reported} in the “out of pocket expenses” section.

New Day USA Gold Star Families Scholarship: To recognize the commitment and sacrifice made to our country by veterans and military families, the NewDay USA Foundation has established a scholarship fund to support boarding school tuition for candidates desiring to attend select military high schools. The NewDay USA Foundation Scholarship may provide up to $15,000 tuition assistance for students attending these schools. Participating schools will match this award.

Understanding Boarding School TUITION

Boarding school tuition alone does not support the tremendous programs available at Army and Navy Academy or other private boarding schools. We understand that the Academy represents a significant cost for most families. Our promise, in return, is that we will continue to offer a highly specialized focus meant to propel each of our students toward success.
