Affording St. David's

We strive to make a St. David’s education accessible to all students regardless of a family's financial means. With this in mind, we are pleased to offer a combination of programs, including need-based tuition assistance as well as participating in the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship, all with the goal of making tuition affordable for all families.

Tuition Assistance awards are made on the basis of a family's demonstrated financial need and are reserved for families who have no alternative to requesting assistance. Families applying for St. David's Tuition Assistance must also apply for the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship (NCOS), and must apply for both programs annually.

We are so grateful to St. David's for the support they have provided. It allows us to afford the education we desire for our children. ST. David's Parent

Tuition Assistance Program

St. David's Tuition Assistance Program is designed to make a St. David's education possible for all families and is designed to support families based on the combination of demonstrated financial need and availability of funds.

North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship

St. David's is pleased to accept the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship. The North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA) offers the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship (NCOS) to parents of students in entering grades kindergarten through 12. Scholarships are awarded based on a family’s household income and can be used to pay the required tuition and fees to attend an eligible private school, including St. David's. All current and prospective St. David’s School families are encouraged to take a closer look and to apply.  

These awards, ranging from approximately $3,000 to $7,000 can be used to assist in paying for tuition and fees at independent schools. A student’s scholarship award is determined by the NCSEAA and is based on both household income and availability of state funds. NC Opportunity Scholarship awards are paid directly to the school. Families applying for St. David's Tuition Assistance must also apply online for the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship. 

The Opportunity Scholarship application for the 2026-2027 school year will open from February 1–March 1, 2026 and can be accessed by visiting the NCOS website.

Athletics

St. David's School is a member of the North Carolina Independent School Athletic Association (NCISAA), and as a member acts in accordance to the association's policies as it relates to admissions for student athletes. Therefore, St. David's School does not actively recruit athletes to play at the school and does not provide athletic scholarships for student-athletes.
