1 payment* - due by June 2021

2 payments* - due by June 2021 and November 2022

10 payments* - due each month beginning May 2021 through February 2022 (the 10-month plan requires an administration fee)

*Families can select from a few pay date options within the month(s)
 
Please review the Smart Tuition brochure for payment details and frequently asked questions.

The process is easy, once your child is admitted, you will be given a family ID that will allow you to access the online payment application and chose the plan that best fits your unique financial situation. To learn more about Smart Tuition, please visit parent.smarttuition.com. 

Families admitted after admission deadlines are encouraged to contact Assistant to the Controller Carolee Remme to discuss payment options
