Guru Kalgidhar School has a scholarship committee which meets to decide on how financial aid works. Prospective parents, (whose sons have successfully passed the entrance examination and interview and are offered a place) are required to complete a form which is available in the admissions office. The form requires parents to submit a detailed report of their financial affairs, including joint family income, in order for the school to ascertain whether they are justified in providing financial support to the parents. The form is comprehensive and has been designed to ensure that the school is able to allocate its resources wisely and effectively, so that they reach the most needy parents and does not provide financial support in the form of discounts to parents who do not need it. Financial Aid ranges from limited financial support to awards worth 100%+ to support parents who would not be able to afford to send their son to Guru Kalgidhar School.
