Financial Aid Application Process
Financial aid awards are based on a family’s demonstrated financial need, ensuring that support is given where it is needed most. This past year, a total of $5.9 million in aid was awarded to Canterbury families.
Canterbury partners with Clarity to process financial aid applications and ensure a fair assessment of each family's financial need. Using your financial information and tax documents, Clarity provides an estimate of what your family can contribute toward tuition expenses. This estimate acts as a starting point for our Financial Aid Committee as they carefully determine an objective financial aid decision for your family.

Applications for the 2025-2026 school year may be submitted after September 1, 2024. Be sure to indicate that you are applying for aid on your application for admission.
