The Los Angeles Archdioces sponsors a Tuition Awards Program through the Catholic Education Foundation (CEF). The Tuition Awards Program is designed to assist students in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles with tuition for enrollment in Catholic Schools. The award partially offsets the cost of enrollment in a Catholic School with grants paid directly to the Catholic Schools.
Applicants must complete an application and submit Proof of Income documents. Additional information regarding participating school guidelines, CEF Restrictions, and the Policies for Proof of Income can be reviewed on the back of application.
