Financial Aid, Cancellations & Refunds
Financial Aid
We award financial aid—based on your family’s demonstrated need—for full- or half-day registrations (no aid for boarding). Because funding is limited and we wish to provide aid to as many as possible, we ask that you limit your request to one camp session.
How to Apply
All applications for aid are due by April 14, 2023. After that, applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis if funds remain. To apply download the Application, 2023 Financial Aid Application
If you are a current or incoming NWS family receiving aid for the 2022-23 or 2023-24 academic year, we will prorate summer tuition at the same percentage as you receive for the academic year. You will still need to complete and submit the summer camp financial aid application by the April 14 deadline. Inquiries after this date will be reviewed on a rolling basis while funds remain.
Cancellations and Refunds
Please note: All cancellations must be submitted in writing to the Summer Camp Director.

A doctor’s note or proof of positive test may be required. If international campers are unable to attend camp due to a change in travel or quarantine recommendations, a full refund (less the deposit) will be available.
