Tuition Assistance
St. Anthony High School, through the generosity of benefactors, is committed to making a Catholic education possible for as many young people and families as possible. This policy applies not only to entering students but also to students already enrolled. It is a fact that financial situations change, and so a family is requested to apply or reapply each year.
St. Anthony High School offers some financial aid to students who need assistance in meeting tuition costs. The student's family must truly need tuition assistance, without which the student could not attend the school. Even so, the parents are expected to make some financial sacrifice and commitment to the school.
Through the Catholic Education Foundation of Los Angeles, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles also provides tuition assistance to students from families with demonstrated financial need.
Tuition Assistance applications are available in the fall and must be returned by the published deadline. Students must reapply each year to receive tuition assistance for the next year. All students applying for aid must meet the eligibility guidelines to be considered for tuition assistance.
Eligibility Guidelines
Students receiving tuition assistance must:
- Demonstrate financial need.
- Maintain at least a 2.0 GPA.
- Maintain a record of good conduct.
- Contribute positively to student life through campus involvement.
- Meet their tuition and fees payment commitments, as agreed upon each year.
- Fulfill annual parent service hour and parent support requirements.
Although tuition assistance is given on a year-to-year basis, it is subject to cancellation at the end of any semester for any reason. Students must maintain a 2.00 GPA, or forfeit eligibility for tuition assistance.
