Family Customized Tuition

York Catholic Middle and High School is excited to share an important announcement regarding our tuition structure that will be implemented for the 2023-2024 school year. As part of this year’s re-enrollment process, we are excited to inform you of YC’s new Family Customized Tuition program. 

NEW! Family Customized Tuition

Much like the YC educational experience is personalized to each student’s individual needs, Family Customized Tuition replaces the one-size-fits-all model to match each family’s education contribution to their unique financial circumstances. 

• Your tuition contribution is personalized based on your unique means and needs, ensuring it is the right fit for your family.
• Similar to the FAFSA process used at colleges and universities, families will use the same Simple Tuition Solutions (STS) platform we have used in recent years to complete the online Financial Questionnaire that factors in individual financial circumstances such as your annual income, debts, family size, and obligations to determine your personalized tuition contribution. 
• Following completion of the confidential questionnaire, your Family Customized Tuition contribution for the 2023-2024 school year will be confirmed by YC and you will receive formal notification by e-mail.
• Participating in the Family Customized Tuition program is not required. Families may choose to opt out and contribute the regular tuition rate as an alternative.

Why Offer Family Customized Tuition Now?
This change makes the York Catholic education experience, which we all know can be transformative for our students, accessible to more families in our area. It is also critical to positioning our school to continue to thrive into the future. We are not immune to the enrollment challenges many Catholic institutions around the country are facing. We also recognize there are many families who would like to have their children at YC but see the current tuition model as prohibitive. The decision to offer Family Customized Tuition is a proactive one that was made after extensive research and analysis, including conversations with many Catholic schools around the country who have successfully implemented similar programs for their families. 

The addition of Family Customized Tuition will help ensure YC can continue to be the go-to private education resource for families who align with our mission and values, seeking a place their children can uniquely prepare for college and career, while also preparing their hearts and minds for the challenges and opportunities of today and for the future.
