Financial Aid Process

After prospective students are accepted to St. Lawrence Seminary, each family will be contacted regarding financial aid. Financial aid is available to all families who demonstrate a financial need. Below is a brief explanation of the St. Lawrence Seminary financial aid process.

The process begins when the Seminary’s Business Office contacts each family in the United States to inquire whether the family intends to apply for financial aid. If the family would like to apply for financial aid, the Business Office mails an application. This application is completed by the family and mailed directly to an outside, independent firm. This firm reviews both the completed application and any supporting, required information. An example of required information is the family’s previous year’s tax forms.

It typically takes three to four weeks from the time the family mails the application to the firm until the application results come to St. Lawrence. The results are reviewed by the Business Office, which then determines the amount of financial aid. Once this step is finished, the Business Office contacts the family with the results.

There are various payment plans available. International families can decide to make one or two payments. Domestic families can make spread payments over one, two, four or ten installments. Payment can be made in cash, or by check, credit card or debit card.

The Business Office kindly requests that all questions about financial aid be completed as soon as possible upon your son being accepted to St. Lawrence Seminary.

Any questions regarding the financial aid process should be directed to the Seminary’s Business Office at: 920-753-7500 ext 7300.
