Financial Assistance

While it is possible to apply outside of the stated application period, the circumstances must be significant and both unforeseen and unforeseeable. Since the school budget allocated a set amount for financial assistance, it is possible that this money will already have been committed and no further assistance available.

The Board of Trustees reviews all of the applications for Financial Assistance and awards the assistance based on the applications submitted within the limits of the school budget.

Only current CAISL families may apply for Financial Assistance.

The application form for Financial Assistance must be submitted by the deadline published on the Fee Schedule and may be found on the link.
