At John Paul the Great Catholic University, we are forming students to be powerful witnesses to Truth in a world that desperately needs it. The Witness to Truth scholarship funds empower passionate young creatives, entrepreneurs, and storytellers to receive a transformative Catholic education rooted in faith and excellence. Your support directly reduces their financial burden and enables our students to pursue their calling with a viable financial plan.
Join us in this mission and be a part of raising up the next generation of Catholic leaders who boldly proclaim truth in love.

“My scholarship package made it possible for me to attend JPCatholic and pursue my calling as a creative entrepreneur. I’ve learned how to approach business with faith and purpose, seeing it as a way to serve others and bring God’s truth into the world.”
Katharine Roach
“My faith has been strengthened here by the sacraments and constant opportunities for spiritual growth on campus. I hope to become a professional apologist, and my scholarship package is helping that dream come to life, since every day at JPCatholic is an opportunity to grow in knowledge of the faith and love for those around me.”
Derek Stallings
“I’m deeply grateful for the generous scholarships from John Paul the Great Catholic University–without them, attending this school and pursuing my dreams as a writer and storyteller wouldn’t be possible. Because of this incredible gift, I’m able to use the talents God has given me to fulfill my mission of changing the world through my passion for storytelling, writing, and directing.”
