In the classical tradition

Ohio EdChoice Scholarship

Most Ohio families enrolled in the Full-Time Academy qualify for substantial state scholarship support through the Ohio EdChoice Expansion Scholarship. For many families, this covers the majority — or all — of STACA tuition. We assist families in navigating the application at no cost.

Hybrid Academy Affordability

Scholarship availability may vary by program and family circumstance. Families interested in the Hybrid Academy are warmly encouraged to speak directly with STACA leadership about affordability, diocesan opportunities, payment options, and possible forms of support.

Need-Based Aid

For the Full-Time Academy, STACA maintains a donor-funded need-based aid program in addition to EdChoice. We are committed to making an education in the Catholic tradition accessible to families who desire the kind of intellectual, moral, and spiritual formation rooted in the wisdom of St. Thomas Aquinas — regardless of financial circumstance.

Freely you have received; freely give.
