The Cushman School Scholarship and Financial Aid Options

Financial Aid options are available for incoming and current Cushman families.  Financial aid is distributed based on need and must be applied for annually.

The Cushman School Scholarship Fund
Financial aid from the Cushman School Scholarship Fund is awarded to current and new families of students entering 2nd through 8th grade.  Scholarship funds are proceeds raised from the annual Blue Ribbon Gala and donations to the E.W. Drody Scholarship Fund.  

Dollars are awarded based on need, and need is determined by the Cushman Board of Trustees Financial Aid committee, using information from Financial Aid for School Tuition, (FAST).

To apply for financial aid, families simply fill out the FAST form which is available online at www.ismfast.com.  




The Cushman School also accepts the McKay Scholarships for Students with Disabilities and Tax Credit Scholarship (formerly known as Florida P.R.I.D.E. Scholarship) through Step Up for Students for low income families.
