Financial Facts
Families of varied adjusted incomes welcome!
MYTH: Providence Cristo Rey High School only accepts students from families with limited financial means.
FACT: NOT TRUE!
Providence Cristo Rey High School wants to make a quality college prep/corporate work study education financially affordable for all students who satisfy national Cristo Rey Network standards. In making admissions decisions, school officials look at the adjusted family income of an applicant. Adjusted Family Income is the amount that a family can spend from total income after all reasonable expenses as well as special circumstances are covered. It also includes the amount of assets a family has. The following chart shows examples of typical families who could qualify economically for PCRHS.

What a family typically pays
After the student's work income is deducted, each student owes about $2,250 for tuition and other school costs. However, the school realizes that for many families, even that amount might be more than they can afford. Therefore, scholarships and additional financial aid are available to families who qualify for it. Each family files a PSAS form that enables school officials and parents to work out a personalized financial package to make it possible for a student to attend Providence Cristo Rey High School.
