Affording Gilman

The success of the tuition assistance program is reflected in the talented and diverse student body that comes to campus each day.

Then & Now: Gilman Tuition Assistance

Early in the history of Gilman School, the trustees acknowledged that there were qualified students who lacked the financial resources to pay for tuition. Members of the Board recognized that not only would these boys benefit from a Gilman education, they would also enrich the School. These trustees began to fund the education of a few students at the School. Their generosity created the foundation for the current tuition assistance program. Originally this system only provided tuition assistance to high school students; the program was later expanded to assist students at all grade levels.

Today, the money for Gilman's tuition assistance program is generated by endowed funds, special gifts to the School, and The Gilman Fund, the School's annual giving effort. Now, through the generosity of many benefactors, Gilman provides assistance to more than 25 percent of the student body in all three divisions.
