St. Joseph School depends on tuition, fundraising, and its own strategic management of resources to support the high quality, Catholic education in the Jesuit tradition.
We utilize FACTS Management System for enrollment and tuition management. Both single pay or monthly tuition installment plans are available over 10 months, April though January.

St. Joseph School is committed to being accessible to students from all socio-economic backgrounds. If tuition assistance is needed, St. Joseph School has an extensive need-based financial aid program. This year, we awarded $1,500,000 in financial aid to our students.
St. Joseph School uses School and Student Service for Financial Aid (SSS), a service of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), to provide an objective, consistent methodology for calculating a family’s ability to contribute to tuition. The school makes the final decision on each student’s financial aid.
SSS Customer Service is available to answer your questions at 1-800-344-8328, Monday through Friday 6:00 am - 8:00 pm and Saturday from 6:00 am to 1:00 pm PST.
If you already uploaded the 2023 tax returns and Schedule K-1 in your prior year’s application, you do not need to upload them again. If you filed an amended tax return, please ensure that you upload the amended tax return. Based on the school’s evaluation of your financial aid application, the school may ask you to provide additional documentations. It is the family’s responsibility to ensure that their financial aid application is complete and accurate. The school cannot evaluate a family’s financial aid need based on an incomplete application.
Families who receive financial aid awards for 2025-2026 will be notified by the Business Office as soon as possible. The school reserves the right to adjust conditional financial aid awards granted based on additional information from the 2024 tax return. For families who wish to appeal their financial aid, please contact the Business Office.
St. Joseph School reviews financial aid needs on a yearly basis to take into consideration changes in a family’s financial circumstances. A family’s financial aid award in one year does not guarantee support for the following year.
For new applicants, completed financial aid applications (including 2024 supporting documents) are due by February 28, 2025 so financial aid awards can be included with acceptance offers.
