STEP 5: APPLY FOR FINANCIAL AID

De La Salle Academy has a need-blind admissions policy, which means a family’s financial status is not considered when deciding admissions. Tuition is only determined after acceptance, and based on a family’s ability to pay. Families must be invited to apply for financial aid using Tuition Aid Data Services (TADS). We will use the information you submit to determine a fair amount of aid during final decisions. If your family has already completed the TADS financial form for another school, please add De La Salle Academy to the application.

The admission team at De La Salle Academy is always happy to help; contact us today at (212) 316-5840 ext 104 or email admissions@dlsanyc.org.
