“Some know the value of education by having it. I know it’s value by not having it. ”
– Frederick Douglas
A JLA education is an unparalleled investment in your child’s future and in the future of our community.
Need-Blind Admission
Families who can afford to fully fund their investment will be required to do so. However, we do not believe that ability to pay should be a criteria in the admissions process, and we are committed to enrolling every student that is accepted into the school, regardless of their financial means. The admissions process will therefore be “need blind” and JLA is dedicated to fully integrating mission appropriate students from all socio-economic backgrounds into the fabric of school life.
Indexed Tuition Program
Full annual tuition of $44,000 reflects the true cost of a JLA education. However, our Indexed Tuition program will endeavor to ensure that each family’s tuition fees are uniquely scaled to meet their individual means. Families interested in applying for indexed tuition will complete an assessment through a confidential third party tool designed to determine which one of JLA’s six tuition amounts is the most meaningful, yet affordable, indexed tuition tier for their family.
Short Form Application Option
For families who expect (based on our Indexed Tuition Calculator below) that they may be assigned to Tier A, we offer the opportunity to submit a brief ‘Short Form’ application in lieu of the full FAST Indexed Tuition application.
JLA Tuition Includes
In order to facilitate transparency between JLA and prospective families, we have created a tuition estimator to give a sense of what their Indexed Tuition tier may be. While a final determination can only be made after a review of your completed Indexed Tuition application, this tool will help to provide an estimate based solely on the parameters shared with us below.
*Families in Tier E may also be eligible for additional support from the Gisela and Daniel Ades Foundation.
