TUITION ASSISTANCE THE VALUE OF A CATHOLIC PREPARATORY SCHOOL EDUCATION The value of a Saint Viator High School education is immeasurable. Students who graduate from Saint Viator are not only ready to attend some of the most demanding colleges in the nation, but they are well-rounded students with a focus on ethics, service, and leadership. Our students are some of the highest achievers in the nation, whether they are earning a perfect ACT score, competing and succeeding at the state level in academics, arts, and sports, or being accepted to the colleges of their choice. Saint Viator students are ready to take on new challenges and make a positive difference in the world. We hear from families that their sons and daughters were able to earn thousands of dollars in scholarships, as well as save additional tuition costs when their child was able to finish college early after completing high school AP classes. Making Saint Viator Available to Families Each year, Saint Viator is able to provide tuition assistance to more families who show need. Tuition for 2020-2021 is $14,640, and we have been able to provide nearly $2M in scholarships to 300 students this year. That equals about one third of Saint Viator families receiving financial support. There are a variety of scholarships and grants available to all families, including the following: • • • • • • • • • • • • •
