Tuition, Fees, and Tuition Assitance

The Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) distributes more than 1,600 need-based scholarships each year. Eligible families with students K-12 are encouraged to apply for financial assistance to help cover the cost of tuition. These tuition assistance grants are determined on an annual basis and families must apply each year in order to be considered.  In 2017-18, the CEF distributed $2,130,297 to 1,648 students in our Catholic elementary and high schools.

All determinations are based on the grant and aid application supplied by the FACTS company. Families are encouraged to complete this application in January and ensure that all required documentation is submitted on a timely basis. Families will be notified of grant awards in the spring and award checks will be sent directly to the schools.
