The academic component of the program is part of John Carroll University. Students are eligible for a variety of significant scholarships and grants as well as loans. In addition, seminarians are eligible for other seminary scholarships through the diocese. The financial arrangements for tuition payment are to be made directly with John Carroll University.
In addition, textbook expenses run anywhere from $300-$500 per semester depending on the courses. The University Bookstore as well as on-line book services can provide the best prices for text purchases. There is also a $400.00 student activity fee, $400.00 technology fee, and $250.00 health fee for JCU.
