Do Columbus Catholic schools take EdChoice?
Diocesan schools appear on Ohio's chartered list, which is the precondition for EdChoice. In our directory, 39 of the 39 Catholic schools are chartered; the listing for each one shows its status.
What tuition aid does the Diocese of Columbus offer?
Need-based tuition assistance funded by donors, applied for through FACTS by March 15 each year, with awards reported to schools in May. Parishes and schools often add their own aid.
What is the Emmaus Road Scholarship Fund?
It is the scholarship granting organization the diocese points donors to. Ohio taxpayers who give can claim a state credit of up to $750, or $1,500 filing jointly, and the fund awards K-12 Catholic school scholarships.
How much is EdChoice at a Catholic high school?
Up to $8,408 for 2026-27. High school tuition usually exceeds that, so diocesan aid and the school's own aid matter more in grades 9-12.
