Apply for Tuition Assistance

Every field is strictly confidential and seen only by the Lev Lev board. Accurate financial details help us assess need fairly — tuition amounts are verified by us directly with your school, so you don't need to provide them.

Parent / Guardian

Children Applying

One application per child. If you have more than one child you would like us to consider, please submit a separate application for each — it lets the board assess each child's school and tuition on its own terms.

Annual Household Income — before taxes, all sources

Enter yearly amounts. Leave blank anything that doesn't apply to you. Telling us how each earner is paid lets us ask for the right paperwork — we will not ask a self-employed parent for pay stubs they do not have.

Only income not already entered above — a side business, for example. Do not enter the same money twice.

Annual Taxes Paid

From your most recent tax return. This matters — we subtract taxes so we judge your need on money you actually keep, not gross pay.

Monthly Household Expenses — what you spend each month

Enter typical monthly amounts. Costs billed once a year — property tax, camp, synagogue membership, tuition for your other children — come in the next section instead. Do not include tuition for the child above.

If your mortgage payment includes property tax or homeowners insurance (an escrow payment), enter it here as one figure and leave those two at 0 — otherwise they are counted twice.

Costs You Pay Once a Year — enter the yearly total, not a monthly share

These are billed by the year, so enter them the way you receive them. Leave any at 0 if it does not apply to you.

Tuition for your other children means day-school tuition for children other than the one on this application — that child is handled separately above.

Household Circumstances

Both of these are taken into account. Supporting a child in college, or carrying a household on one income, is credited before we ask you to contribute anything toward tuition.

Savings & Assets — do NOT include retirement accounts

The first $10,000 of your savings is fully protected and never counted against you.

Tuition Assistance You Already Receive

Please be complete here — it does not hurt your application. It ensures we cover the gap that is actually left, rather than dollars already funded. Aid your school already gives you belongs with the child above, not here.

Special Circumstances

Check anything your family has experienced in the past year. These help the board understand your situation beyond the numbers.

Your Situation

Your financial details are read only by Lev Lev board members and are never shared with your school or community. If a grant is approved, the school's business office is told only your child's name and the amount applied to their account.
