AFFORDING A PRIVATE SCHOOL EDUCATION (WEBINAR)

At US, we strive to break down the financial barriers to provide access for boys across Northeast Ohio. We also know that navigating the world of financial aid can be intimidating. Our popular financial aid webinar returns this year to help relieve the anxiety of the process. We'll describe the various forms of aid and how to ensure that your family gets the aid needed, so your son can make the most of his educational journey.
