AFFORDING MSD
Tuition
At MSD, we strive to make tuition levels as accessible and affordable as possible. We offer several payment plan options, including monthly, semi-annual, and annual. Parents are obligated for the full year’s tuition regardless of the type of payment schedule selected. Tuition insurance is also available. A non-refundable deposit is required, upon acceptance, to hold the student’s space at MSD. Click here for 2024-2025 tuition and billing info.
