17³Ô¹ÏAPP

It depends on the individual student. Tuition is the same across the board (whether in state or out of state). Once a student applies and if they are accepted, they will receive an initial financial aid package. This may include things like academic merit-based scholarships, athletic scholarships if applicable, donor funded scholarships, outside scholarships, Florida state aid, and federal aid. Once you put in an application to 17³Ô¹ÏAPP and if you are accepted, your admissions counselor can begin to discuss specifics about your individual financial aid package.

High school students and college students interested in transferring to 17³Ô¹ÏAPP are welcome to attend Ave Maria Experiences, along with their families.
