Making STA Possible

Financial assistance AND PAYMENT PLANS

We understand that affordability is an important part of your family’s decision. Through need-based financial assistance and payment plan options, we work with families to explore ways to make an STA education possible.

We encourage you to ask questions and learn about the options available to your family.

New Hampshire Education Freedom Accounts

An STA education may be more affordable than you think. New Hampshire’s Education Freedom Account (EFA) program, administered by Children’s Scholarship Fund New Hampshire, provides funding that eligible families can use toward private school tuition and other approved educational expenses. Families may apply regardless of household income, subject to program eligibility and availability.

For the 2026–2027 school year, typical EFA funding was approximately $3,900 per student. Students with qualifying disabilities or greater financial need may receive additional funding. Individual awards vary based on program criteria.

STA asks all New Hampshire families to apply through Children’s Scholarship Fund as soon as the application becomes available. We encourage you to explore this opportunity as you plan for your child’s education.
