Scholarship Opportunities
CJ Community Funded Scholarships
There are many opportunities for students to receive scholarships which have been created and funded by members of the Chaminade Julienne community to honor alumni, parents, and friends of the school. Students do not apply for these scholarships (listed below); they are awarded by the tuition assistance committee based on individual criteria, including: financial need, work ethic, academic record, leadership, community service, spirit, teamwork, artistic ability, faculty recommendation, ethnicity, gender, attendance record, character, interest in science, and other contributions to CJ through extra-curricular activities. Students become eligible for these scholarships when their families complete the PSAS tuition assistance application.
