  • Apply for Financial Aid and Scholarships

    Through Bishop Kearney’s financial aid program, it is our goal to make a Bishop Kearney education possible for all families based on demonstrated financial need and the availability of funds.  Bishop Kearney is partnered with Blackbaud to determine a family’s level of financial need based on the information that families share in the application which includes income, expenses, debts and assets.
     
    The financial aid portal will open after October 1.  At that time, you can create an account and fill out an application. The application typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete. There is an application submission fee.

    In most cases, student awards remain at similar levels year over year. However, award amounts could change if considerable changes in family finances occur.

  • Financial Aid Portal Opens

    Families apply for financial aid annually through our financial aid portal. The Financial Aid portal will open for the 2024-25 financial aid applications October 1, 2024.
