Financial Assistance

Mount St. Mary Catholic High School prides itself on its socio-economic diversity and therefore works to provide financial assistance via our Work Grant Program to those students who might need it.

Work Grant Program

Through the Work Grant program, students are required to perform various duties (e.g. sweeping, painting, raking leaves, etc.) in exchange for tuition assistance. Work grant assignments are completed during the summer months or after school during the school year. The family and student must abide by the terms of the work grant agreement, or tuition returns to the full tuition rate.

The program has limited funds which are allotted to those applicants with the greatest financial need. Applications are processed through the FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment program.

You may apply online at www.factstuitionaid.com or pick up an application in the Mount St. Mary Business Office.

Other Important Information about Financial Assistance
