Admissions

At Chesterton Academy of Blessed Michael McGivney we believe every Catholic family should have the choice to send their children to a Catholic school that prepares them for college and for life. Families who may not be able to afford the full tuition rate will be invited to complete a financial aid application after submitting an admissions application.

We partner with School and Student Services (SSS) in our financial aid process. To apply for financial aid at our school, you will complete the SSS financial aid application (also referred to as the Parents’ Financial Statement or PFS) and submit the required documents indicated below within the SSS Family Portal.

The SSS application is a comprehensive application that will take some time to complete. Give yourself the time you need by not waiting until our deadline approaches. You’ll need your most recent tax return before beginning the application.

We will communicate our financial aid decision to you in early February 2027. To make our decision, we use the information from your SSS application as a starting point and consider our school policies, practices, and available budget.
