Seton Catholic is committed to working with any family who desires a Catholic education for their children. There are several ways to that we can make it work for your family, so please contact the Office of Admissions to find out just how affordable it can be. *All financial aid available at SCS is based on need as determined by an independent service or criteria set by the state or granting organization.
Indiana Choice Scholarship (Vouchers) The State of Indiana provides a partial tuition payment for eligible families who are enrolled at Seton Catholic Schools by September 1 each school year. If there are more applicants for a grade level than there are seats available, a lottery will be held to determine which students may enroll. The amount of the scholarship is based on your income and household size as well as the school district where you reside.
Tax Credit Scholarships (Also known as SGO Scholarships.) Eligible families receive $500 in scholarship toward their tuition made available through private donations that are made to a Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO) and designated to Seton Catholic Schools. Because they are donor funded, there are a limited number of SGO scholarships available in any school year. Eligibility is based on household size and income.
Seton Catholic Tuition Assistance Each school year, Seton Catholic provides tuition assistance supported by donations and endowments designated for scholarships. Any family can apply, and the amount of assistance is based on the resources of your family compared with tuition cost for your student(s). This calculation is done by a 3rd party organization, FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment (FACTS).
A school official must submit the application for all students.
You will need to provide your Federal Tax form 1040 for all individuals in the household that earned income in the previous year, as well as verification of any other income in the household. (For example, child support, disability, social seurity)
You will also need to provide documentation of all individuals living in the household (If they are claimed on your taxes, that is sufficient. If they are not claimed on taxes, assitional documentation will be necessary.)
