What boarding school really is

Schools make an effort to cover all the costs if a student is on full FA, including books, travel to and from, computer, etc. Some schools even have FA budgets for the summer trips that some faculty sponsor.

If you get accepted and need FA, you will get an FA offer. You will need to explore what all is included in that offer and you can ask all these questions about add-on expenses. Also, if the FA offer is less than what you needed, either because your need is greater now (ex. a parent lost a job) or they simply didn’t give you as much as you believed you needed, that’s not the end of the story. Lots of kids are able to get the FA offer increased. You might need to submit additional information or do a better job explaining what the issues are.

Good luck!
