Help is Available

CVA subscribes to School and Student Services (SSS), a service of the National Association of Independent Schools, to determine eligibility for Financial Aid through a standardized application and computation process. Based on the financial information provided by the family, SSS will provide CVA with a Tuition Contribution amount, which guides CVA in making financial aid decisions.

Any family interested in applying for financial aid or scholarships are asked to submit an application through SSS. Financial aid awards are determined based on need, whereas scholarships are awarded based on the individual student athlete's fit and potential to contribute above and beyond expectations in a meaningful and substantial way to the CVA community as a whole. In certain circumstances a student athlete may qualify for both financial aid and a scholarship.
