Scholarships

Scholarship Applications Deadline:
March 15

Due to the generous support of many alumni and friends, Bishop Watterson High School is able to offer both merit- and need-based financial assistance for students seeking a Catholic education. Approximately 1/3 of our students received scholarships, grants, and tuition assistance totaling more than $1.3 million for the 2020-21 school year.

Merit-Based Scholarships: recognize students based on their academic performance or outstanding service, in addition to other qualifying criteria.
Note: Several of these are based on results from the Entrance Exam. A make-up Entrance Exam will be given in the spring for students who cannot take the test on either of the two scheduled dates. However, those students will not be eligible for an academic scholarship and the scheduling process will be delayed.

Need-Based Scholarships: awarded to students with a recognized need. In order to be eligible, you must first file with the Diocese through FACTS, https://online.factsmgt.com/signin/3D2SH. The deadline is March 15.

In order for your child to be eligible for any of the following scholarships, please have them complete the online scholarship application below by March 15.

Bishop Watterson High School admits students of any race, color, and national or ethnic origin.
