Tuition
Who pays?
In addition to your family's contribution, every student as SAS is supported by the school's $20,000,000 endowment and more than $650,000 in annual contributions from alumni and friends.
SAS does so many things well it's difficult to clearly define them, but the best tool provided is critical thinking, something missing in our society. That reasoning ability alone is worth the cost of tuition. The memories of friends, teachers, spirituality and nature? All that's just icing on the cake.

Why Mountain Tuition?
In 1905, St. Andrew's School was founded to provide education for the "barefoot boys of Appalachia". Although much has changed in the 118 years since that school's founding, SAS's commitment to providing an outstanding education for those for whom it might not otherwise be available remains at the core of the school's mission.
