Put the schools side by side, then decide

Keeping 4 tabs open is a reliable way to forget what you were comparing. Pick up to 4 of our 553 school profiles - the table below lines them up and marks exactly the rows that differ.

ScholarshipsThis school publishes its aid numbers more fully than any other in this group, which makes them worth reading closely: 61% of students receive financial aid, more than USD 5 million was awarded in 2024-2025, and the average grant was USD 30,000 for boarding students and USD 19,000 for day students. An average boarding grant of USD 30,000 against a USD 62,000 fee is a substantial proposition, and it is stated as an average rather than a maximum. The school describes aid as a reduction in tuition rather than a loan. The enrolment deposit is 10% of tuition, due with the signed enrolment agreement.

How to read this table

  • An empty cell (—) means VNIS has not verified that data point yet. It does not mean the school lacks it.
  • Tuition comes in two kinds and the table says which: a published figure (with source and date) or an editorial tuition band — a band is a range, not a number.
  • Columns are in the order you picked them. No school is placed first for being a partner or for paying. Display criteria
  • The table ranks nothing: “differs” means different, not better.
