Financial Aid

At St. Peter in Chains, we are committed to making every effort possible to accomodate tuition assistance requests or life-altering circumstances that result in need. Our financial aid opportunities include:

Archdiocese of Cincinnati Catholic Education Foundation Scholarships
The Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) Scholarship Program became a reality in 2017 thanks to the Archdiocese's One Faith, One Hope, One Love Capital Campaign. The CEF awards need-based tuition grants up to $1,000 for K-8 students enrolled in an Archdiocesan school. Application is made through FACTS Tuition Management. Please visit www.catholicbestchoice.org for details.

Ohio EdChoice Scholarship
State-funded financial aid is available to families with qualifying income AND to families whose children would ordinarily attend a public school currently listed as underperforming by the Ohio Department of Education. Please contact the School Office for more information on EdChoice.  

St. Peter in Chains Parish Tuition Aid
A limited amount of tuition assistance is available each year through the parish, on the basis of financial need. Applications for need-based financial assistance must be submitted through FACTS Tuition Management for consideration.  

Hamilton Community Foundation Scholarships
Thanks to generous donors and the skilled management of the Hamilton Community Foundation, St. Peter's is able to offer a limited number of scholarships. Each of these donor-advised funds possesses different eligibility criteria. Please contact the School Office for details. 

Knights of Columbus Scholarship 
Scholarships are available to the children of men involved in the Knights of Columbus. To learn more about financial assistance or inquire about membership, please contact Mr. Dave Senger at david.senger@zoomtown.com.
