The Middle and High School is committed to helping families in financial need with traditional tuition assistance.
The Middle and High School is also excited to participate in the JEC’s revolutionary Tuition Max program that caps total tuition payments for qualified families at a percentage of their AGI, making tuition far more affordable and removing the guesswork from the Financial Aid Process.
Families moving into the area may also be eligible to receive a one-time $1,800 New Home Credit towards their tuition.
The Financial Aid Application can be accessed here. For more information on financial aid, please contact Thalea Theodorakis at 908 355-4850 ext. 6208 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Tuition Max
This innovative program ensures that total tuition will never exceed a reasonable percentage of family income. With a respectful and simple enrollment process, total tuition, regardless of how many children are enrolled, will be capped at a percentage of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), as determined by line 11 of your IRS tax return.
How to apply:
• Please visit our website at TheJEC.org/TuitionMAX to see more infomation about Tuition Max. The application can be found on the FACTS website.
• If you have a child/children enrolled in another Jewish school (K-12), a $5,000 credit will be applied per child to your AGI. For example, if your AGI is $180,000 and you have two children in a Jewish day school other than the JEC, your eligibility for program benefits will be evaluated as if your AGI were $170,000!
Eligibility Exceptions:
1. A family net worth over $1 million (net worth includes home equity and retirement accounts).
2. Filing of Schedules C and E as part of your federal tax return.
3. Reduction of a JEC family’s total year’s tuition by more than $5,000.
4. Non-dual income families where there are no children kindergarten-age or younger.
