Approximately 50 percent of the school’s annual operating expenses are covered by government grants, the balance of which is covered by tuition. Accordingly, tuition plays a critical role and controls the quality of the education Surrey Christian School is able to offer. Tuition Assistance is available to existing Surrey Christian School families that have been enrolled for a minimum of 3 years. This assistance will only be granted for one year at a time up to a maximum of three years. We regret that tuition assistance is not available for new families applying to the school nor is it available to assist with the cost of busing, preschool or daycare.
In order for us to allocate our resources wisely and fairly, we have enlisted the help of Independent School Management’s FAST (Financial Aid for School Tuition) program. FAST does not decide whether financial assistance will be given or how much to give. Rather FAST provides a needs-based financial aid analysis service which includes a recommendation of what a family should reasonably contribute toward tuition. All information from FAST is kept strictly confidential. Results are reviewed by the school’s Finance Office and Tuition Assistance Committee which makes recommendations based on the annual Tuition Assistance budget. A letter confirming the amount of financial aid is sent to families no later than the second week of June.
While the availability of school resources, the number of qualified applicants, and overall budgetary constraints influence financial assistance decisions, Surrey Christian School is committed to making grants available to as many eligible applicants as possible. In an effort to make the process fair to all, Surrey Christian School considers the following when making award decisions:
No financial aid procedure can be entirely equitable—there are simply too many individual factors and extenuating circumstances—however we believe the process that has been established serves Surrey Christian School well. Please contact our accounting office for any questions.
