Tuition Assistance
At Brookline Music School, we firmly believe that the joy and enrichment of music education should be available to everyone, regardless of their financial circumstances. For over a century, we’ve been committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive musical community, and our robust Tuition Assistance Program is a testament to this commitment.
Tuition assistance at BMS is generously funded by our Annual Fund and dedicated supporters and aims to bridge the financial gap for students who might otherwise miss out on the transformative experience of music education. We’re proud to offer this opportunity and encourage all eligible families to apply.
Applying for Tuition Assistance
A Simple Three-Step Process
- Download and Complete: Begin by filling out our Tuition Assistance Form.
- Gather Required Documents: To help us assess your needs fairly, please prepare the following to submit with your application:
- Your most recent complete tax return, including all schedules
- Your four most recent paystubs
- BMS reserves the right to request additional documentation if needed
- All documents go to a secure Drive folder only accessible by our tuition assistance coordinator.
- We understand that discussing financial matters can be sensitive, but please be assured that all information is kept strictly confidential. Our goal is to make this process as smooth and comfortable as possible for you.
- Remember, applying for tuition assistance does not affect your chances of admission. Application alone does not guarantee aid; if you choose to enroll in a program prior to tuition assistance results, you must be prepared to pay the full tuition amount and follow all indicated policies.
- We encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance with your application. Our team is here to help guide you through the process and address any concerns you might have.
- By making music education accessible to all, we’re not just teaching notes and rhythms – we’re building a stronger, more vibrant community. Your passion for music is what matters most to us, and we’re committed to helping you pursue that passion.
- Take the first step towards your musical journey today. We look forward to welcoming you into our diverse and talented Brookline Music School family!
- Please allow a minimum of 2 weeks processing time before receiving your tuition assistance result
