Financial Aid

EBI promotes diversity in all of its forms, including socio-economic status. The school offers an aggressive need-based financial aid program to assist families with tuition expenses. This year, over 30% of EBI students receive financial aid.

Like many independent schools, EBI uses the Parents' Financial Statement (PFS) from the School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS) to do a standardized calculation to determine need.

TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL AID

Complete the Parents' Financial Statement (PFS) online at sss.nais.org and have a report sent to EBI (EBI's school code is 4271). Contact EBI if you have any questions about how to complete this form. There is a fee to submit the PFS. EBI has a limited number of fee waivers available; contact the school for more information.The PFS must be completed by February 4, 2012. (January 13, 2012 for returning families)
Complete and submit the EBI Financial Aid Request form to EBI by February 4, 2012. (January 13, 2012 for returning families)
Upload your 2011 tax return (IRS Form 1040 and all supporting schedules) to the SSS website by April 15, 2012.
Submit IRS Form 4506 to EBI by February 4, 2012. (January 13, 2012 for returning families) Complete numbers 1-5 and sign but do not submit payment.

EBI will notify recipients of financial aid awards with admissions decisions on March 9, 2012.

Note: In the case of divorce or separation, EBI needs both parents/guardians to contribute to the payment of their child's tuition regardless of legal agreements. A student's custodial and non-custodial parents, as well as those parents' current spouses, are expected to submit the Parents' Financial Statement and IRS Form 4506.

If you have any questions about the financial aid application process, please don't hesitate to contact the school at (510) 653-3324 or admissions@ebinternacional.org.
