 COLLEGE TUITION ASSISTANCE

The cost of higher education is ever-growing, burdening our recent college graduates and incoming classes with daunting debt.  According to the Federal Department of Education college costs have nearly doubled in the last decade. Our Diocesan Dept. of College Ministry (DOCM) needs your help in getting the word out to our high school and college students about means of financial assistance. DOCM intends to make financial aid information a regular part of assisting our students in an effort to demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ for their physical needs as well as spiritual.

Take a look at some tuition assistance opportunities! >

If you would like to share any financial aid information for future or current college students of the diocese, please contact:
