As one of the only fully residential independent high schools in the country, St. Paul’s School offers an academic community unlike any other — a place every student and teacher calls home. Together, they pursue excellence in character and scholarship on a 2,000-acre campus where everyone is encouraged and supported to discover their best selves.
When you join our community, you will be welcomed by peers from around the country, and world. You will learn together, and you will grow together. You will experience high school in ways that you cannot imagine. It will change your life.
We work to make this experience possible to as many qualified students as possible. About 38% of SPS families receive financial aid each year, and our grants meet full demonstrated financial need with no gaps. Families of admitted U.S.-based students with an annual household income up to $125,000 generally qualify for full tuition support.
For 2024-25, tuition (inclusive of room and board) is $68,353.
In many ways, St. Paul’s School is like a college, but with support close at hand all hours of the day and night. Your teachers and fellow students are your neighbors with whom you will enjoy meals and pursue academic, athletic and extracurricular interests. They will not only help you succeed but also care about you during your time at the School, and beyond it.
We are eager to support you on this exciting journey to find your right match for high school — one that will no doubt change your life. It starts with a visit to our campus, or a virtual meeting if you cannot join us in person. Your completed application is due by January 15, and our admissions decisions will be emailed on March 10. We are here for you every step of the way — to answer questions, provide support and continue to help you get to know our incredible community of students and adults. Let’s begin!
