  • All previous schools are contacted by the parent and records are forwarded to The Tobin School.

  • An interview and tour with a faculty member is arranged for the parents.

  • A classroom visit for the child will be arranged during February and March.

  • Standard to most independent schools, admissions decisions and tuitions assistance notifications are sent in mid-March.

  • Once an applicant is offered enrollment, a $ 1000 non refundable deposit will secure your enrollment. This will be credited to the student’s balance. Any interest earned on the deposit goes to support the school’s operation.

Age Recommendations

We recommend children start Kindergarten, the September 1st after they have turned 5.

Tuition Assistance

At the Tobin School we are committed to providing need based financial assistance to qualified students.

To determine aid, both new and returning families must submit a completed Parent’s Financial Statement (PFS) to the school and to Student Service for Financial Aid in Princeton, New Jersey by February 1st of each year. Families must also submit a copy of their most recent IRS Form 1040,W-2’s and all schedules directly to the Tobin School, Office of Financial Assistance, no later than February 15th.

Admission and Tuition Assistance are separate processes that take place concurrently, so that families learn the outcome of both applications at the same time. Applicants will be notified of Admission/Tuition Assistance by mid March if all required forms were submitted by February 15th. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to notify the school of any significant financial changes that may occur throughout the year. Tuition Assistance applications must be submitted on an annual basis.

Divorced/separated parents must each submit the Parent Financial Aid Statement. As well, both sets of parents must submit all income tax information: 1040, W-2’s and all schedules.
