Which LA private schools offer kindergarten financial aid, and the first deadlines (2027–28)
Before each school’s admission deadline, check how its aid process works and ask admissions for the aid deadline and required documents. The earliest verified kindergarten admission deadline among the schools below is Curtis School’s: submit its application by November 1, 2026. Curtis says it awards need-based aid at all grade levels. That date is for admission, not aid. Each school sets its own aid process, and these records do not specify common forms or required documents.
What might an aid application ask for?
Use the school’s instructions to find the forms and financial documents it requires. The verified facts here do not specify a common aid service, required forms, or documents, so do not assume one school’s checklist applies elsewhere. Our private school application checklist tracks admission deadlines; the private school directory links to school information.
Which schools have verified aid information?

What should I do first?
Check whether each school on your shortlist offers aid, then contact its admissions office for the current aid application, required documents, submission method, and deadline. Confirm each aid date directly, since the admission dates above are not aid deadlines. If Curtis School is on your list, its admission application is due November 1, 2026.
