How Do Catholic School Grants Work at St. Agnes?

Choosing a high school for your daughter also means thinking about tuition and what works for your family. If you’re exploring catholic school grants, you may have questions about who can apply, what assistance covers, and how the process works.

At St. Agnes Academy, tuition grants are part of our need-based financial aid program. Families who anticipate needing assistance are encouraged to apply, and we welcome questions as you learn more about your options.

Students who meet St. Agnes admissions criteria may be considered for need-based financial assistance. Our financial aid program is based on financial need, not academic, athletic, or musical talent.

There is no income limit for applying. We consider each family’s circumstances individually through the financial-aid review process. Applying does not guarantee an award, but submitting an application gives the Financial Aid Committee the information it needs to consider your family’s situation.

St. Agnes offers both partial and full tuition assistance, although full-tuition grants are the exception. Tuition grants cover tuition and the required freshman laptop.

Families should also plan for school-related expenses that fall outside the tuition grant, including items such as books and uniforms. Looking at those costs together can help you understand what your family may need to budget for during the school year.

Families apply through Blackbaud Financial Aid Management and provide the requested financial information and documents. Blackbaud prepares an assessment of the family’s ability to contribute toward educational costs, and the St. Agnes Financial Aid Committee uses that information as part of its review.

Families should apply for financial aid before receiving an admission decision. The financial aid application is due January 15, 2027. Funding is limited, so it is also important to follow the application timeline for your daughter’s entry year.

You can review the financial aid application process for current instructions. If you have questions about your family’s circumstances or the information requested, the enrollment team can help clarify what is needed.

Tuition grants are awarded for one year at a time, so families must reapply annually.

St. Agnes notes that families can generally expect financial assistance to continue during a student’s enrollment when financial need remains, and academic and citizenship expectations are met. Because a family’s financial circumstances may change from year to year, the amount of assistance may also change.

Annual review gives the school an opportunity to consider each family’s current situation.

You do not need to have every financial question answered before learning more about St. Agnes.

If catholic school grants may be part of your family’s plan, take time to review our tuition and financial aid information. Our financial aid team welcomes your questions as you consider what a St. Agnes education could look like for your daughter.
