Support Student Scholarships

St. Thomas Aquinas Merit Fund

This merit scholarship supports high-performing students who have a passion for theology and philosophy scholarship and evangelization. JPCatholic seeks students who are passionate about investigating the deepest, most important questions about human existence and diving deeply into the eternal truths of the Catholic faith. We particularly value a student’s zeal for evangelization and the challenge of distilling the faith into a form that can be communicated in a compelling way to diverse audiences. Students apply by composing an essay reflecting on the task of the New Evangelization. JPCatholic seeks $100k to support these students.

Annual Funding Need: $100,000

At the center of JPCatholic’s education is a robust humanities curriculum where all students investigate the deepest, most important questions about human existence, with a particular focus on theology and philosophy.
“Faith and Reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of Truth," said our patron St. John Paul the Great. Students in our Theology & Philosophy program dedicate their time at JPCatholic to an even deeper exploration of Scripture, Catholic teaching, and influential thinkers like Aristotle and Aquinas. They combine academic scholarship with practical application on how to bring the truth of the Gospel to our modern culture.
Our alumni go on to pursue masters and doctoral degrees, teach high school theology, work for non-profits and Catholic think tanks, and serve the Church in various ministries with wide-reaching impact.
