The American Hebrew Academy's tuition offers outstanding value compared
to peer institutions. Strong philanthropic support enables us to maintain
reasonable pricing while providing our students the very best high school
education, Jewish studies, state-of-the-art technology, and boarding environment.
The
American Hebrew Academy is committed to providing an outstanding experience
to students regardless of financial means. Our Financial Aid Program is
open to all students. To apply for need-based financial aid, families
must complete the American Hebrew Academy financial aid form and the School
and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS) form available from the Admissions
Office. Financial aid decisions are made independently from admissions
decisions, and in no way affect a candidate's chances for admission.

need-based financial aid is available to any student in need who has
been admitted to the Academy. The Academy has established the following programs
