University High School of Indiana

Independent & Secular School serving grades 9-12 in Carmel & Westfield. On the 2026-27 Choice list. Funding fit, the record behind it, and what to ask.

Where this comes from. School facts are from the NCES Private School Survey (2023-24, or 2021-22 where a school did not respond) and, for schools missing from it, from state lists. Choice status is IDOE's 2026-27 participating list as downloaded October 28, 2026; SGO status is IDOE's partner list dated October 21, 2026; ESA status is IDOE's August 31, 2026 provider sheet. Indiana does not publish private tuition; confirm it with the school.

University High School of Indiana is on the Indiana Department of Education's 2026-27 list of participating Choice schools, with instruction listed as in person. IDOE's 2025-26 annual report counts 121 Choice students enrolled here in period one.

Your voucher amount comes from where you live, not from the school's address: for 2026-27 it runs from $6,395 for a Carmel Clay resident to $7,456 for an IPS-area resident, and University High School of Indiana receives the lesser of that figure and its tuition and fees.

It is on IDOE's SGO partner list dated October 21, 2026, so a family within 400% of the free and reduced-price lunch line can apply for a tax-credit scholarship to stack on the voucher. It is also an approved ESA school provider for 2026-27, meaning a student with an Indiana IEP, service plan or CSEP can have ESA funds pay tuition and fees here through ClassWallet.

The NCES Private School Survey (2023-24) reports 358 students, 34 full-time-equivalent teachers, 100% of its most recent graduates going on to four-year colleges.

Independent schools set their own aid. Where tuition runs well above the district voucher, ask how need-based aid is calculated after the Choice award is counted.
