Financial Aid Policy
RISE Institute has a need-based financial aid policy. Funds for financial Assistance are available through private donation of community members and khums, hence funds are limited. Our admission decisions are made need-blind, without regard to a family’s financial situation. We believe no qualified student should be denied enrollment because his or her family cannot afford tuition. It is also important to remember that an independent school education is a choice for families. Both the school and the families make significant financial sacrifices to support this choice. We review each application for financial aid by the same guidelines and evaluate individual family needs relative to others in our school.
