What should you ask an Atlanta private school about its own aid?
Ask three things: whether the school takes Promise, GSNS or SSO money; what you'd owe after that money is applied; and what the school itself offers. Many schools run need-based aid through a third-party application and add sibling, faculty or congregation-member pricing.
Schools set their own aid calendars, and the larger independent schools often decide aid with admission in late winter, so get the forms early.
