Applying for Financial Aid & Scholarships
At Bishop Ward High School, we believe that everyone should have an opportunity to receive a Catholic education. Because of this belief, and through the generosity of our benefactors, we are able to award approximately $800,000 in scholarships and financial aid each year.
The Financial Aid and Scholarship applications are included in the Financial Packet. You may download a copy of the financial packet here.
Outside Scholarships
Several local parishes and youth organizations have scholarships available to families. We encourage families to check with their parish and youth organizations where they are involved to see if scholarships are available.
