We work with families to provide an affordable Quaker independent school education. If Friends Select is the right fit for your student, we want to make Friends Select fit for your family’s budget.
Our average family has an annual income between $95 to $150 K. So there’s a good chance you’ll qualify. You need only to fill out the forms. Each year, we devote millions of dollars to ensure that more than 31% of our students receive financial aid. Which is almost double the national average for independent schools.

Unlike many schools, Friends Select tuition includes most fees for such things as trips, yearbooks, IDs, and more. This means that except for lunch and what you bring in your backpack, everything is included.
In lower school you don’t need to worry about packing a lunch. All lower school families participate in an inclusive food plan, which offers nutritious snacks and lunches for the year. Private (Friends Select) busing and an After School Program are available for your convenience at an additional cost.
The Monthly Payment Option allows you to spread out payments beginning in June, continuing for the next 10 months until the final payment in March. A one-time fee of $100 is charged for the 10-month plan.
We want it to be as easy as possible to make your payments. The Time Payment Option allows you to pay 67% of the tuition by July 1, with the balance due by February 1.
If you are interested in admission for the coming school year, please get in touch with the admission office at 215-561-5900 ext 3104 or admission@friends-select.org before applying to see if space is available in the grade in which you are interested. We thank you for your interest in Friends Select and look forward to hearing from you.
