Financial Assistance Information
St. Bernard College Preparatory High School strives to provide the highest quality educational programs at the lowest possible cost. We recognize and appreciate the financial sacrifices that families make to send their children to St. Bernard College Prep. We work very hard to control our expenses to ensure that we can provide a secondary Catholic education at an affordable tuition rate. St. Bernard’s tuition is one of the lowest among the fifty Catholic high schools in the ADLA-Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
Paying for a Catholic education is an investment in your child's future. St. Bernard affords opportunities for merit & leadership scholarships as well as, need-based funding from our donor partners that may help with the financing of your child’s education. The school is currently supported with grants from the Catholic Education Foundation (CEF). Tuition grants are based on the evaluation of financial need of the family. Families must submit tax documents and any supporting documents that prove your families financial need to our business office to be reviewed. St. Bernard's funding pool is limited and we regret that we cannot always meet the full financial need for tuition assistance of all applicants. Should a student be placed on Academic or Disciplinary probation, he or she may become ineligible to retain their financial aid and scholarship.
Financial Aid
January, 2026: Financial Assistance Application Deadline (need-based)
SBCP Need-Based Financial Aid: Available to all grade levels. The (CEF) Catholic Education Foundation tuition assistance application for 2025-26 school year is attached below and is also available by request from our Admissions office and Business & Finance office. Families must submit an application along with all required documents (listed on page.3) in order to qualify for any financial assistance. A confidential report will be sent to our office, from which the level of tuition assistance available to your family will be determined. The CEF application process looks at the big picture of your finances to help assess an amount that your family is able to pay for tuition. For this reason each families tuition agreement differs and is based on each families financial profile.
All tuition agreements are extremely confidential and should not be shared with other parents or families within the Viking community. Should a parent or family break the confidentiality of their tuition agreement, the student may become ineligible to retain their financial aid/scholarship, as stated in their tuition agreement.
