Tuition Assistance
As part of our commitment to provide a quality Catholic education to any student who desires it, Cardinal Newman School seeks to provide need-based annual financial assistance to qualifying families. Each year, the requests for financial assistance exceed the funding available. Therefore, it is necessary to establish policies and procedures for distributing financial aid to ensure consistency and fairness. Application for tuition assistance is made via FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment. To request financial aid, please thoroughly complete and submit your online application. Please note - you will not automatically receive aid for the upcoming year if you received aid this year. Applications are required for each school year.
