Financial Aid enables Saint Anthony Catholic School to enroll students who would not otherwise be able to afford a Catholic education because of financial constraints. Through the support and generosity of our Saint Anthony community, benefactors, and foundations, we are able to extend aid to our families in need, thus fostering a more diverse school community.
Saint Anthony offers financial aid for returning Catholic students whose families cannot afford the full cost of tuition. Financial aid assistance is awarded on the basis of demonstrated financial need to qualified Catholic students. Please view our Financial Aid Philosophy for more information on eligibility and the application process.
All families who are interested in financial aid are encouraged to apply through Tuition Aid Data Services “TADS”. All financial aid awards are based upon the family’s need and special circumstances as supplied in their TADS application.
Saint Anthony Catholic School believes strongly in providing service to the community and financial aid to those in need. It is the responsibility of parents to submit the TADS forms online or by mail, no later than March 1st so that financial aid decisions can be made on a timely basis. A Special Circumstance Form must also be completed and forwarded to the Business Office.
