Affording Our Schools
Wilshire Boulevard Temple values the diversity of the Jewish community we serve and is dedicated to providing an exceptional Jewish education to as many families as possible. We understand that investing in your child’s future may be financially challenging, and we are here to support you. Our flexible payment schedule and Financial Assistance program are designed to make our schools accessible. We strive to meet each family's unique financial needs, ensuring that decisions regarding financial assistance are made independently of admissions decisions, and a family’s financial need does not affect a student’s chances of admission.
To ensure equity in our Financial Assistance process, we have partnered with nationally recognized Mission Enrollment, who specializes in financial assistance review. All information submitted throughout this process is confidential. If you have other children attending tuition-based schools, it is expected that you also apply for assistance from those schools as well.
Below are the steps to complete your application as well as the timeline for submission and awards. We look forward to welcoming you to our community.
How to Apply
The 25/26 season will commence on September 9, 2024! To get started, please go to the Clarity Application and create an account. The Clarity Application is also mobile-friendly, so you can complete it from anywhere. Please remember to return to your dashboard after you complete and submit your Clarity Application, as Wilshire requires you to upload additional tax documentation including 2023 1040s, W2s and K1s, if applicable. Mission Enrollment and the Financial Assistance Committee will consider all information that is made available.
It is expected that families will fulfill their remaining financial obligation in accordance with our regular payment schedules.
