Scholarship Programs For Catholic High School

Scholarship programs for Catholic high school students are an annual award for high school students who are unable to or cannot afford to pay the cost for Catholic School tuition.

The Catholic High School Scholarship is standard financial aid for all Catholic High Schools. The program provides tuition assistance. The financial need of the student and parent is the basis of this scholarship. The scholarship program isn’t based on academic achievment or ability, nor on musical ability, atheletic ability, or any other condition other than financial need.

In order to receive financial aid from the school, the student will have to maintain a good grades and a good disciplinary record. Periodically, the student’s records will be checked. The school will have the right to end or expire his/her scholarship if the student fails academically or in disciplinary record.
