AFFORDING THE SUBIACO EXPERIENCE

We work with you to help make a Subiaco Academy education within reach.

Providing an excellent Catholic education, grounded in the Benediction tradition, is a significant investment and one that pays dividends for a lifetime. Fortunately, we are honored that generous benefactors, who understand that receiving an education at Subiaco can be transformative, have provided funds for tuition assistance. While we remain one of the most affordable Catholic schools in the country, your family might qualify for tuition assistance to make this experience even more affordable.  With averages of $3,300 per day student and $14,800 per boarding student awarded in tuition assistance packages each year, we work hard to help make Subiaco Academy one of the most affordable private Catholic college preparatory schools in the country

We have a responsibility to see that the funds donated by our benefactors are used to make a Subiaco education possible for those who are truly want and deserve to be part of our community. It is our belief that the son's family is responsible for educating their son and with that, we want to partner with those families who go through our proven need-based process with FACTS. We use FACTS to determine the financial need and to process billing and payments. We define financial need as the gap between the cost of attendance as a family's ability to pay. When determining need, income, assets, liabilities are considered. To be considered for tuition assistance, please visit the FACTS site.
