Financial Aid
Apply for Financial Aid from CEP
Families seeking aid are encouraged to apply early, as funds are limited and are granted on a rolling basis. Families seeking aid are also encouraged to apply for the payment plan, as financial aid awards typically do not cover the entire tuition fee.
Aid awards are based on family income and extenuating circumstances. Requests for assistance typically exceed resources. The average adjusted gross income of those families receiving aid in 2011 was under $35,000. For this reason, families are discouraged from applying for financial aid if their adjusted gross income is greater than $50,000.
Families who wish to apply for financial aid should submit a Financial Aid Application along with all supporting documentation. Financial aid applicants are generally expected to pay the application fee and tuition deposit. Applicants will not be considered for financial aid until all application and financial aid materials have been received. An award letter reflecting the amount of financial aid granted and balance due will be sent electronically with the admissions materials.
Seek Other Sources of Support
We strongly suggest that families with financial need also seek outside support. Accepted students should start soliciting additional funds right away. Schools, local religious or community organizations, businesses, local government offices, friends and relatives are all potential sources of support. Some students have successfully raised their entire tuition this way!
Consider the Payment Plan
A four-month payment plan option is available to all families. Families who do not apply for financial aid, or apply for but do not receive financial aid, are assessed a service charge of $50 for using the payment plan. Families who wish to apply for the payment plan should submit a Payment Plan Application. The first payment is due upon acceptance to the program, and subsequent payments are due on the last business day of each month.
