Parents interested in enrolling their children at The
Tobin School must contact the school to receive an application. The
procedure is as follows:
-
Parents submit the completed application and the
non-refundable $50.00 application fee.
-
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.
