Falk strives to keep tuition and fees affordable for most families seeking an independent school education.

However, we recognize that many children whose families cannot afford our tuition fees might greatly benefit from a Falk School education. Falk considers socioeconomic diversity part of its mission. Our financial aid office works diligently to support all families of need.

Financial assistance requests are not considered when acceptances are offered.
