Financial Aid at Exeter, etc.?

<p>My family makes about 80,000 a year. I'm wondering if good boarding schools such as Exeter would grant us any financial aid, as my parents have flat-out said that I will not be able to go if no financial aid is awarded us. Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>Exeter has a huge endowment and gives money to families that make over $100,000. I would apply, fill out the FA application and see what happens. Exeter doesn't want accepted students to choose another school because of finances. Good Luck</p>

<p>thanks!!!!</p>

<p>Exeter is unusual among the top boarding preps in that it's not need blind. They use aid to achieve diversity. So if you're a URM or an athlete from North Dakota, you can get aid. If you're white and from NYC, you won't.</p>

<p>Tuition and Financial Aid</p>

<p>Boarding students $33,000</p>

<p>Day students $25,500
Financial aid awards range from $2,700 to $33,000
Financial aid awarded. $7,934,000
Students 33%
Average financial aid grant $25, 178 (boarding)</p>

<p>Exeter's mission is students from every corner of the world and I know many students who weren't URM, not athlete and New England or NE and got money.</p>
