Financial Aid Instructions

8TH GRADE APPLICANTS:

Financial applications must be completed by December 1, 2024.

Financial Aid Awards are based on financial need.  Awards vary by applicant, based on need.  To apply for financial aid, please complete the following steps:

Holy Ghost Prep is now using Clarity as our financial aid software system.  We discontinued the use of SSS in August 2023.  All applicants will need to complete the Clarity application. 

• Applicants must complete a Financial Aid application ONLINE.  This application can be found by visiting the Clarity website by clicking here. This online form can be completed beginning September 1, 2024. Please complete the 2025-2026 application.
• In the case of divorced or separated parents, it is the obligation of each parent to contribute to the education of his or her son, regardless of whether a legal agreement to do so exists. Therefore, both parents must complete a required Financial Aid application either jointly or separately. Decisions on need-based awards will be made only after considering the financial resources of BOTH parents. No information will be given by the school to either parent regarding the other parent's financial disclosures. The assets of both parents will be considered before awarding any grant; the declaration that one parent has disclaimed responsibility for educational expenses does not apply.
• In a situation where one parent has no contact with his or her child, the custodial parent should submit third-party verification (from clergy, school administration, etc.) regarding the other parent’s absence.
