SchoolCost has a free preview. Here's exactly how we pay for it.
We don't sell your data. We don't take commissions from schools. We don't run ads. So the obvious question: how does this exist?
01
Free school browsing
School profiles, fee history, sources, and methodology stay available without payment. A free single-child preview shows a broad planning range.
02
Full access, one-off
A $5.99 lifetime unlock adds exact projections, savings numbers, multi-school comparisons, and the comprehensive planner.
03
What we will never do
Take money from schools. Rank schools by who pays us. Sell your children's data. Show ads. Hide the methodology.
