Catherine McAuley Scholarship

Paying no tuition is just the beginning

The Catherine McAuley Scholarship is more than a financial pathway to success.

As a McAuley Scholar, you will engage with a supportive community alongside staff and peer mentors, who are committed to achieving success through service, mentorship, leadership, professional skill development, and educational opportunities.

• Pay no tuition*
• Be part of a community that understands the importance of service in living a purposeful life
• Develop real world skills that will ensure you’re on the path to a meaningful career
• Build leadership skills, develop strong relationships, and promote positive change in the world

*The Catherine McAuley Scholarship will be combined with your institutional and state aid to cover your entire tuition and fees cost. Room, board, and books may be covered by federal aid, federal student loans, or a small remaining balance paid for by the student.
