Tuition Assistance
A Moravian Academy education requires an investment in your child’s future.
Tuition assistance at Moravian Academy is available to families with students in Kindergarten through Twelfth Grade. Families may apply for tuition assistance through the Clarity Application. Clarity is an independent entity that partners with independent schools to offer a secure, streamlined financial aid application that can be completed online within 20-30 minutes. The Clarity application requires a nominal processing fee which will be determined based on a family’s income threshold as documented in their application. We do not offer fee waivers for the Clarity application. Only one application per family is required each year you wish to be considered for tuition assistance. Annually updated Tuition & Fees can always be found on the Moravian Academy website. Please note that preschool and pre-kindergarten students will not be considered for financial aid.
For questions, please contact financialaid@mamail.net.

Considering whether to apply for tuition assistance??
An important factor in considering Moravian Academy is deciding whether your family will also apply for financial aid. In 2025-26, the median income of new families receiving aid at Moravian Academy was $130,000 per year. In total, 42% of all Moravian Academy students (both new and returning) received financial aid, totaling over $7 million dollars. Awards are based on income, the number of children in tuition-charging schools, a family's assets, and other financial resources and responsibilities. If you are uncertain as to how your financial situation might translate into a financial aid award, we encourage you to apply.
