2023 -2024 Tuition

When the Trustees review the overall financial position of the school each year, they seek to balance increasing operating expenses with key priorities that will serve the best interests of our students. These priorities include placing first-rate teachers in our classrooms, attracting top students with tuition assistance and merit scholarships, and maintaining a facility that befits our mission and program. 
The Board of Trustees has voted to set tuition for the 2023-2024 year at $36,800. This number reflects a commitment to offer a Montrose education at the most affordable level for academically motivated girls and families who embrace our mission. For tuition for international students, contact the Admissions Office.

Tuition Assistance

Families with a variety of incomes may apply for need-based tuition assistance. 
Through the generosity of the parents, alumnae and friends of Montrose School, a tuition assistance program has been established to help families pay for a Montrose education. Every year we provide over $1.5 million in aid to help families. Currently, more than 40% of Montrose families receive tuition assistance. If you believe you are in need of assistance, we encourage you to apply for it.

What parents are saying

The first time we set foot into Montrose, the sense of community that we were immediately enveloped in was quite unique. We felt like we 'belonged' before we even did. The important focus on mind, heart and character spoke to us and is felt throughout the classes. as well as in the valuable and special Montrose mentor relationship.
