$1,000 Scholarships to Help Pay for Tuition
The Aim Higher Foundation provides additional scholarships to children whose families are looking for tuition assistance to send their child to a Catholic school in the great Twin Cities metro area. Children attending grades K through 8th grade are eligible to receive $1,000 each. There is no limit to the number of children who receive a scholarship per family.
Once awarded, the Aim Higher Scholarship follows students through 8th grade and to other Catholic schools. In other words, if your child receives a scholarship in kindergarten, he or she will continue to receive $1,000 each year through 8th grade—a possible total of $9,000 in nine years.
Be sure to watch for important dates for the Aim Higher Scholarship Applications for the 2023-2024 school year:
- Applications will be accepted between November 1, 2022 through February 22, 2023.
- A second application period is available between June 1, 2023 through August 6, 2023.**Please note: the amount of funding available for the summer cycle is much smaller than the first period. So please try to complete your application by February 22.
