Tuition, Financial Aid & Scholarships

Supporting your Son's Esto Vir Journey

We understand that enrolling your son in a private school is a family commitment – for both the student and the parents -- and we are here to help support you as you navigate this important part of the Admissions process.

Need-Based Financial Aid

A critical part of our mission is to enroll the most qualified young men regardless of their financial circumstances. Two types of financial aid awards are available: Direct Grants and Work Grants. Direct Grants are awarded based on financial need and are a direct reduction of tuition. Work Grants are awarded to high school students based on financial need and reduce tuition by the number of hours a student works for the school.

Dates for Applying for Financial Assistance

Families may begin the application process for financial aid after October 1 of the current school year. Please contact Julie Malloy at jmalloy@chaminade-stl.org or at 314-692-6617 if you are a NEW family interested in applying.

Additional information may be found in the comprehensive Financial Assistance Guide.

Academic Scholarships

Chaminade offers academic scholarships for incoming students based on their academic achievement and standardized test scores. These scholarships are renewable each year a student attends Chaminade so long as they maintain a 90% average. (Note: There is no additional application for these scholarships; academic transcripts will provide sufficient information.)

High School and Middle School Applicants' academic scholarships are based on a nationally standardized test (SSAT, Iowa Basics, ERB, or Stanford Achievement) and achieving an A- or higher in their core academic classes. Academic scholarships range from $500 - $8,000, based on a composite score between the 91st and 99th percentile.

Students who take the Missouri MAP test and achieve an "Advanced" score in both Communication/Language Arts and Math, as well as have an A- average in their core academic classes are eligible for a $6,000 scholarship. Students who achieve a "Proficient" score on one test and "Advanced" in another receive a $2,000 scholarship.

NOTE: Freshman applicants must list Chaminade as their first choice school on the Archdiocesan Application form. These scholarships are renewable each year a student attends Chaminade so long as they maintain at least a 90% average.
