Financial Aid
At JCCHS, it is our goal to serve all families that choose to invest in their child's future by committing to a John Carroll education. John Carroll strives to make tuition affordable for everyone and we encourage all families to apply for our tuition assistance programs.
John Carroll, in partnership with the Diocese of Birmingham in Alabama, is committed to providing an affordable, quality, Catholic education for its families. In an effort to be good stewards of the resources we have been given, all schools participating in the Diocese of Birmingham tuition assistance program utilize the FACTS Grant & Aid application process. FACTS is a national tuition management company whose services provide for an independent determination of financial need and the equitable allocation of available tuition assistance funds.
FRIENDS OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIP
The Friends of Catholic Education Scholarship assists students who embody the values and ideals that we seek in our John Carroll students, but whose families do not qualify for financial aid. All registered incoming freshman from our Diocesan partner schools are encouraged to apply.
