Scholarships for Incoming Freshmen
Brebeuf Jesuit desires that its students be admitted based on their ability to learn rather than their ability to pay. Therefore, every attempt is made to make a Brebeuf Jesuit education affordable. All families are encouraged to investigate their qualifications for financial assistance.
In addition to a significant financial assistance program, a small number of scholarship opportunities are available to incoming freshmen. All scholarships are Brebeuf Jesuit awarded as tuition credits; amounts are subject to change. Select scholarships (*) require the completion of the financial aid application during the freshman application process, with several such scholarships intended for middle income families. Please direct financial aid questions to the Business Office at 317.524.7106.
Applications for the following scholarships are available upon acceptance at Brebeuf Jesuit. Please direct all questions regarding the following scholarships to Madeleine Smith '00, Administrative Assistant for Advancement, 317.524.7046 or msmith@brebeuf.org.
