Financial Aid (deadline March 1st)

The OWL Program is fortunate to be able to offer financial assistance to qualified students to help offset program costs. This is possible through the generous contributions of foundations, organizations, community groups, and individuals. Each individual financial aid award is based upon demonstrated financial need and typically ranges from 20% to 95% of the OWL tuition, using the federal guidelines for free and reduced lunch as an income reference chart. First consideration for financial assistance will be given to new applicants. Financial aid recipients from previous years are also eligible and encouraged to apply.

Students who receive financial aid are expected to write a thank-you note describing their experiences to their sponsor while they are at camp. Day campers will likely need to write their thank-you notes at home and bring them back to camp the next day.

A completed financial aid application must be submitted online in order to be eligible for financial aid. Additionally, you must email your supporting documents to be considered for funding. You will be able to apply for financial aid during the application process.

All financial information provided will be treated confidentially and must be received by March 1st.
