The A+ Schools Program was originally implemented as a school improvement initiative established by the Outstanding Schools Act of 1993. Similar to other St. Louis-area private schools, Christian Brothers College High School has applied for and expects to receive designation as an A+ School, thereby allowing our students the opportunity to take advantage of the financial incentives available through the A+ Program.
Qualifying CBC graduates will be eligible for tuition to attend any Missouri public community college or public vocational or technical school under the following guidelines:
Tuition reimbursement is contingent upon the availability of state funds.
Additionally, some four-year colleges and universities in Missouri offer their own A+ scholarships. These scholarships are determined by the colleges and universities themselves and may or may not be offered at any time. Check with the financial aid office at a four-year college to inquire about any incentives for A+ students.
STUDENT ELIGIBILITY
To be eligible for the A+ Schools Program's financial incentives, Christian Brothers College High School must certify a student as having met all A+ Program requirements.
