Student Aid Information

Waldron Mercy Academy strives to be financially available to all families interested in providing a quality Mercy education for their children. Our financial aid program provides monetary assistance for families who demonstrate financial need. Need is defined as the difference between educational expenses and the family’s ability to pay those expenses.

​

There is no specific income level at which a family is no longer eligible for aid. Eligibility is based on many factors, so you may want to consider applying for financial aid if you feel you cannot pay all of the costs yourself. Waldron Mercy recognizes that families bear the primary responsibility for financing their child’s education and expects a family to exhaust all available resources before requesting aid from the school.

​

WMA uses School and Student Services (“SSS”), a service of the National Association of Independent Schools (“NAIS”), to process financial aid applications. Based on the financial information you provide in your application, SSS calculates an estimate of the amount your family can contribute toward educational expenses. This enables us to make fair and objective financial aid decisions. 

​

Whom should I contact if I have further questions or concerns?
