Tuition and Affordability
We are excited to introduce the Josephinum Academy THRIVE Scholarship to incoming Josephinum freshmen, Class of 2028!
This generous donor-supported award makes 100% tuition coverage possible for the first 40 enrolled freshman for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year. The guidelines and specifications for accepting a THRIVE Scholarship center on the awarded student and their parent/guardian intentionally fulfilling requirements focusing on positive and active investment in the Josephinum community, goal-setting, and leadership. Students who are interested should apply to Josephinum by submitting their online application, their 7th, and 8th grade records, and a FACTS financial aid application. Once accepted, the THRIVE Scholarship award will be extended to the first students who enroll.
We encourage 8th grade students to complete the application requirements by March 17th in order to strengthen their chances of benefitting from this wonderful opportunity. Feel free to reach out to Admissions@josephinum.org with any questions you may have.
