• Virtual Tuition Assistance Information Session

  Financing an independent school education is a major investment in a girl’s future. The cost of educating a student at Hockaday – with our personalized attention, stellar faculty, state-of-the-art facilities and myriad opportunities beyond the classroom – is substantial. We recognize that the tuition and fees can feel prohibitive to many families and we are committed to making Hockaday accessible and affordable for the family of each student we admit regardless of financial circumstances. Please join us for this virtual information session.
