Financial Aid Opportunities

Vandebilt Catholic is committed to providing a holistic education to all students. High priority is given to those families who have supported Catholic schools and great care is given to ensure that the school does not become available only to the social, academic, or athletic elite. Vandebilt Catholic offers financial aid based on need with an in-house budget of approximately $150,000. Donated funds are also available through endowed scholarships.


Families must complete the VCHS registration process to apply for financial aid (including registration payment.) Registration applications are typically due in February. FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment conducts the need analysis for Vandebilt Catholic. Families applying for financial aid will need to complete an online application at www.factsmgt.com by early March. The process takes about twenty minutes to complete and there is a $40 (approximate) application fee. All supporting documentation must be uploaded and application status should read completed by the deadline in order to be considered for financial aid.
