Your child’s Jewish education is within reach.
At Schechter Manhattan, we are dedicated to creating a diverse and engaging environment where every child thrives. Tuition enables us to provide a special combination of personalized, academic excellence and meaningful Jewish living and learning. It enables us to invest in dynamic teachers and their professional development, as well as the tools and technology that create inspiring learning experiences.
We recognize that choosing our school reflects a significant commitment for every family in our community, and believe that money should never stand in the way of a family’s desire to invest in a Jewish education. What’s more, we are committed to building a diverse community that reflects the tapestry of Jewish lives and backgrounds.
At Schechter Manhattan, we recognize the contribution of every family to the vibrancy of our community.
Our school includes families from varied religious, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, and we believe the diversity of our community nurtures the growth of our children in important and meaningful ways.

We invite you to apply for tuition assistance in one of two ways:
Tuition Calculator
This system provides a quick and easy way to calculate the amount of tuition assistance your family is eligible to receive, up to 18 percent. It checks your eligibility anonymously based on your income and other expenses and provides a calculation that can be submitted in place of a complete Tuition Assistance Application.
Tuition Assistance Application
Tuition assistance is determined based on each family’s unique financial situation, including considerations such as number of children in the family, household income, household expenses, and other life circumstances. We use an outside service provider, TADS, to process all Tuition Assistance applications, which are then reviewed by an internal committee. All information is kept confidential, and admission decisions are made independent of the need for tuition assistance.
Commitment to Respect
We are committed to ensuring that all billing administration, including tuition payments and tuition assistance applications are handled in a fair, dignified, timely, and appreciative manner.
