Financial Assistance
Whenever possible, we find ways to accommodate families who can’t quite meet tuition rates. Of course, it is important for families to invest in their children’s education. We take a team approach to affording tuition for Seacoast Waldorf School students. It’s a core value for us that no student should be refused entry to Seacoast Waldorf School based solely on financial concerns. To make our education accessible to as many students as possible, we offer Tuition Payment Plans, Financial Aid for Eligible Students, and Scholarships for students who are not eligible for aid.

Seacoast Waldorf School uses a platform called TADS for tuition billing and payment. We offer options for affordable monthly payments.
