Our tuition assistance program is essential to our Sacred Heart mission. We strive to build a community that reflects the socioeconomic diversity of our area. We believe in the profound educational benefits of a diverse school community.
Tuition Assistance decisions are based on a family’s demonstrated need. Our assistance comes in the form of grants applied toward tuition for the upcoming school year. An annual application is required for renewal of assistance.
In our most recent school year, we awarded over $2 million in grants for tuition assistance and tuition remission, which was distributed to 26% of the student body.
