Tuition Assistance

Tuition assistance enables The Bear Creek School to enroll mission-fit students who would not otherwise have access to an independent school education because of financial constraints. Our tuition assistance program assists families with domestic students in grades K – 12. Please note, applying for admission to Bear Creek and applying for tuition assistance are two separate processes. The tuition assistance application must be submitted at the same time you submit your child’s application for admission. See Tuition Assistance and Grants for the link to the Financial Aid Application, deadlines, and other important information. You are welcome to email tuitionassistance@tbcs.org with tuition assistance related questions.
