2008-2009 Tuition and Fees

Tuition (all grades PK4 through 12) $7,200.00

The initial deposit of $300.00 is due upon re-enrollment, or upon acceptance for new students. This payment is credited toward tuition, and is fully refundable should a student be withdrawn and refund is requested in writing prior to May 1. After that date no refund can be made.

Students in grades 7 - 12 purchase the required books, new or used.

Students are also expected to furnish their own personal supplies required for their grade. A list is published prior to school opening.

Optional programs and activities such as meals, Extended Day, and Academy Arts involve additional charges. In most cases, these items can be paid in cash or charged to school accounts for monthly billing. A finance charge of 1 1/2% of the past due balance is added to accounts more than 30 days in arrears.

A limited amount of Financial Aid is available to families whose need is verified by FACTS, or for athletes who participate in varsity sports by the School and Student Service for Financial Aid. Those families applying for athletes through SSS must submit a copy of their 2007 federal tax return to the Business Office of Davidson Academy. Grants are for one year and are awarded by the Financial Aid Committee. Applications for financial aid are available from the Admissions Office, or through a link on the Davidson Academy website. To be considered for financial aid for the 2008-2009 school year, applications must be received by one of the two previously listed agencies by April 1.
