Tuition and Tuition Assistance


“When we say our child loves school – he LOVES school. It’s incredible that every day (yes, every day) as we head to school he says, ‘Mama, I can’t wait to get to school.’ He comes home talking about it, and he goes to sleep talking about it. ... We are blown away – his experience is beyond anything we could have imagined. Thank you for all that you do to create such a safe and inspiring environment that lets each child thrive as they are.”

Tuition Assistance


Independent school tuition is a sound, substantial investment for your family. For over a century, C&C has worked to ensure a C&C education is accessible to as many children as possible. To achieve our goal, a significant portion of our operating budget is dedicated to tuition assistance. Our families believe in it too, with net proceeds from our Spring Benefit designated to financial aid.

For 2026-27, City and Country is using Clarity for all financial aid applications and analysis.  C&C's Clarity access code is 8134.

  • Tuition assistance is available to students in Kindergarten and older.
  • Our award decisions are based solely on demonstrated need. 
  • For financial assistance for the 2026-27 school year, current C&C families should submit their form no later than Monday, December 1, 2025.
  • New applicants to C&C should submit their form by Monday, December 8, 2025.

Tuition and Financial Aid Frequently Asked Questions

Will my application for financial assistance adversely affect my application to the School?
No. Enrollment decisions and applications for financial aid are considered separately.
Are non-tuition fees discounted for families receiving assistance?
Yes. Families receiving financial aid are eligible for discounted rates on a number of non-tuition items. Examples include the Spring Benefit, Spring Fair, Harvest Festival, and after-school programs. To receive the discount, families should contact the Business Office. All requests are confidential.
If we receive financial assistance one year, will we automatically receive it the following year?
Financial aid awards are granted for one year at a time, and families must reapply annually. The Financial Aid Committee reassesses each applicant family’s needs, and awards are given based on demonstrated need. Each family’s grant is adjusted each year, but families can assume that unless their financial situation changes drastically from one year to the next, they will receive approximately the same level of financial support each year. 
Are earnings the only consideration taken into account when reviewing financial aid eligibility?
While earnings are looked at closely, we also expect a family to maximize its earning potential to contribute as much as possible to tuition. (For example, assuming both parents are able-bodied and do not have very young children at home, we would note that both parents have the ability to be employed.)
If we are already members of the C&C community and haven’t received financial assistance before, are we eligible to apply for aid?
Families who have been at the school for at least two years may apply for financial assistance.
