Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs)
Scholarships are available through Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs). Scholarships must be renewed annually and require annual income support documents. SGO families pay a discounted yearly tuition amount per student. Saint Ann’s participates in two SGOs: C2 Opportunity and Scholarships for Kids. Students currently receiving aid from an SGO can renew their scholarship at Saint Ann’s upon acceptance and during the SGO application season. Enrollment is open April – May each year. Click the images below for more information. Contact the office to apply.
The CHOOSE Act
The CHOOSE Act provides qualifying students with an opportunity to receive up to $7,000 a year for tuition, certain fees, and other eligible expenses at Saint Ann’s. Signed into law in 2024, the CHOOSE Act makes refundable income tax credits available in an educational savings account (ESA). Students cannot receive ESA funds and also have a scholarship from an SGO. Enrollment is open until April 7, 2025. Students who have been approved for funds elsewhere may transfer those funds to Saint Ann’s. Learn more and apply here.
Internally Funded Financial Aid
Financial Aid is provided through internal funds from Annunciation of the Lord Catholic Church and must be applied for annually. There are three types of assistance available: the Parishioner Rate, Saint Ann Financial Aid, and the Saint Joseph 2-for-1 Scholarship.
Parishioner Rate
Engaged parishioners at Annunciation of the Lord Catholic Church qualify for a reduced tuition rate. This form of aid is not need based. Applicants must establish that they are “active parishioners” who (1) are registered at the parish, (2) give of their time and talent, and (3) contribute to the parish financially in an appropriate manner. For the 2025-2026, the parishioner rate is $5,500, a financial benefit of $2,090. Saint Ann’s exists to support parents, the primary educators of children, who are purposefully seeking to catechize and form their children through active and intentional Christian life within the parish; the verification ensures that Saint Ann’s is fulfilling that role.
