The Howard School empowers children with learning differences by providing evidence-based expertise that is tailored to each child's unique profile.

The Howard School understands investing in your child's education is a significant commitment, and each year we provide over $700,000 in need-based tuition assistance from the school's financial aid funds and Georgia GOAL.

Howard's approach to teaching students with learning differences is phenomenal. The number of specialists and assistant teachers available to work with and teach the students is a huge asset.- Trunshedda R., Middle School Parent

Financial Assistance

Financial Assistance 2026-27

The Financial Aid Committee awards need-based financial aid to as many new and returning families as possible, and therefore full scholarships are not available. To be considered for financial assistance, submission of all financial aid documents from all custodial, non-custodial, and step-parents (including most recent Federal Tax Returns, all supporting schedules and forms, and W-2’s or 1099’s) SHOULD BE COMPLETED NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 15. AVAILABLE FUNDS ARE LIMITED AFTER THIS DEADLINE HAS PASSED.

Since financial aid is granted to students on the basis of need and availability of funds, awards are granted for one year at a time and must be applied for annually.

Please note: Since we offer rolling admissions, the financial aid application will remain open for new families who apply for admission after December 15.

Financial Aid Steps

Complete the Howard School Financial Aid Request Form 2026/27 (available starting September 15). This is the only financial aid paperwork sent directly to The Howard School.

The financial aid committee will also take into account unexpected family financial situations, the needs of our entire applicant pool, and the availability of funds.
