Tuition and Financial Aid
Tuition and fees for the 2011-12 schoolyear range from $16,630 for students up to second grade to $19,575 for upper schoolers. About 20 percent of students receive financial aid, totaling more than $2 million each year.
In May 2007, the Malone Family Foundation, established by John C. Malone of Denver, Colorado, gave a $2 million grant to Pembroke's endowment, the largest single endowment gift in the school's history. The gift was used to create the Malone Scholars Program to give need-based financial aid to highly qualified students who otherwise would qualify for at least 50 percent in financial aid.
