Comprehensive Tuition

Many private schools charge additional fees on top of tuition. At Fay, comprehensive tuition includes all fees for books and supplies, lunch and snacks, local field trips, programmatic trips, and athletics. Tuition also includes morning and after-school care, which is available for all Fay students.

Boarding tuition also includes housing, 24/7 supervision, daily breakfast and dinner, meals on weekends, and evening and weekend activities and trips. 

For international boarding students, tuition also includes fees for administering and supporting students and families whose residence is outside the United States.

Payment Plans

Option 1: Enroll in Fay’s Monthly Payment Plan.

Option 2: Pay 60% of tuition in May; then pay the remaining 40% of tuition in August.

Option 3: Pay 100% of tuition in May.

Tuition Insurance

Fay School participates in Tuition Refund Plan (TRP), a tuition insurance program. If you participate in the Tuition Refund Plan and your child withdraws or is dismissed for a covered reason during the academic year, TRP pays the school a portion of the “unused tuition.” This payment helps satisfy any remaining obligations you may have under the enrollment agreement. The school then returns any excess funds to you.
