Tuition Assistance
Scholarships, Grants, and Tuition Assistance
Finances should never hinder a family from attending Catholic Memorial High School. All parishioners from supporting parishes who want to attend Catholic Memorial should apply for admission. The Office of Admission has a list of community agencies and businesses that offer scholarships and grants to high school students.
CMH also sponsors its own tuition assistance based on financial need. Financial need is determined by information provided to an outside evaluating agency. The agency assists Catholic Memorial with an unbiased, fact-based assessment of a family's financial condition. There is a minimal fee charged by the outside agency for this service.
