Need-based financial assistance is available. The goal of our administration is to make Pope John Paul II High School financially affordable for all students that wish to attend.
Financial Assistance

- Instructions for online application process here: First Bank & Trust
- Complete the PJP Application and submit it to Mrs. Dieudonne'.
- BOTH applications must be submitted by May 15, 2022.
Online applications are reviewed by an independent review through, First Bank & Trust. FBT makes recommendations that are considered along with the in-house application form. The application packet is reviewed by qualified independent consultants who make recommendations directly and confidentially to the Head of School. Financial assistance notifications are usually sent by mid-June.
IMPORTANT: Financial assistance must be applied for in the spring after registration PRIOR to the academic year in which you seek the assistance. If the deadline isn't met, you will not receive consideration as all available funds are already distributed.
