TUITION ASSISTANCE
FROM THE CATHOLIC EDUCATION FOUNDATION
The Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) provides tuition assistance to the most financially deserving students attending Catholic elementary and high schools within the Diocese of Joliet in Illinois. Applications for the CEF are through the FACTS Management site, and will be reviewed, processed, and then sent to the St. Michael Church Office. Simply create a user name and password to begin. Requests should be made by the April 1st deadline.
“The Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) helps over 1600 students in the Diocese of Joliet each year.”
TUITION ASSISTANCE
FROM THE ST. MICHAEL FUND
At St. Michael, we want every student and family seeking a Catholic education to have the opportunity. Tuition Assistance scholarship or grant dollars are available for current or future Lancers who demonstrate financial need. If financial assistance would make Catholic education attainable for your child, please apply.
Catholic education is a gift, whether made possible by one’s parents or by one’s faith community. Tuition Assistance is funded by generous school and parish donors, current and past, who provide funding for Catholic education for students who otherwise could not afford to attend St. Michael.
