CSSyes is free tuition for students who'll make the most of it.

As a high school guidance counselor, you know which students stand out. You also know who-because of financial limitations-stands the greatest chance of falling behind.

St. Scholastica's CSSyes program is for
low-income Minnesota students
with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher
and a minimum score of 20 on the ACT.

Personal attention. Prestigious education. Zero tuition.

Everyone deserves the chance to go to college, but many great students don't believe it's possible-especially at a private, liberal-arts institution. Their parents simply can't afford it, and they're not sure if there's enough financial aid out there to help.

CSSyes makes it possible by:

• Covering the full cost of tuition
• Covering tuition for each of the four years of an undergraduate degree (with a minimum 2.4 GPA at St. Scholastica)
• Allowing students to earn other scholarships to cover room, board and books

You know the students we're talking about.

We'd love to make college affordable for these standout students, but we need your help.  

Download and print our invitation to CSSyes and give it to a student you think would be best benefitted by exploring this program and our college.

I come from a low-income family and I am paying less than I would at a public college. St. Scholastica helped direct me to great scholarships that made it affordable. It is satisfying to know I will have a great education from a college that will help support me through my journey.

The Financial Aid
Department at St. Scholastica
is ready and willing to make
the school accessible to those
with a genuine interest in a
broad education and awards
incredible amounts each
year in scholarships and aid.
For the high quality of
services provided, attending
St. Scholastica was no doubt a
savvy investment for me.

I felt comfortable with my choice to come to St. Scholastica because my family and I understood the investment here, which felt more like what we thought a public school would cost. The admissions and financial aid departments did everything they could to help us through the process and understand that St. Scholastica is affordable. It has been more than worth it.
