ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS
Notre Dame awards a number of academic scholarships based on entrance exam performance and prior school records. Scholarship consideration is given to students who list Notre Dame as their first or second choice. There is no separate exam for those who seek scholarships. Notification of a scholarship award is included in the student’s acceptance letter.

NEED-BASED FINANCIAL AID
Notre Dame works with families to help make a Notre Dame education affordable. Through the generosity of benefactors, alumnae and friends, we are committed to making a Notre Dame education a reality for families who demonstrate financial need.

Notre Dame partners with FACTS Grant and Aid Assessment to process all financial aid applications. Applications are accepted only online.
