Financial Aid Application Process

Indicate that you are applying for Financial Aid on the Windward online admission application

Complete the online Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS)

Windward uses the School and Student Services (SSS) platform as a starting reference point in calculating and verifying the information provided by a family. SSS is a service of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS). When completing your PFS be sure to indicate that Windward School (SSS code 8269) should receive a copy of your information.

Starting in September, you are able to go to https://sssandtadsfa.force.com/familyportal to start your Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS), which provides Windward with an estimated family contribution based on income, assets, family size, debts, and liabilities. We consider this recommendation and make adjustments as merited.
New families will create a username and password which will allow you to complete the PFS over more than one session. Therefore, allowing you time to gather the required information and to ensure accuracy. All material submitted to SSS is secure.
Returning student applications must be submitted by January 6, 2023.
New student applications must be submitted by February 1, 2023.
