Any College Scholarships for Catholic Students?

I'm a devout Catholic and I've heard there might be college scholarships available for Catholic students. Does anyone know where to look or have any recommendations for scholarships related to my faith?

Absolutely! Several organizations offer scholarships specifically for Catholic students, providing financial support to students who exhibit strong adherence to their faith:

1. The Knights of Columbus is a well-known Catholic organization offering a range of scholarships for Catholic students. The Fourth Degree Pro Deo and Pro Patria Scholarships are open to Catholic students entering their first year of college who are the children of Knights or who are Knights themselves.

2. The Italian Catholic Federation provides scholarships to Roman Catholic students who are of Italian descent and live within the Roman Catholic dioceses of Arizona, California, Illinois and Nevada, with extensions to various other states.

3. The John W. McDevitt (Fourth Degree) Scholarships are given to Catholic high school students with a parent who is a Knight in good standing, or if the student is a Knight in good standing.

4. The Catholic United Financial grants scholarships to its members. They award at least 100 scholarships every year, ranging from $500 to $1000.

5. The National Catholic College Admission Association offers multiple scholarships to Catholic students attending one of the member colleges or universities of the association.

Be sure to check out these options and make sure you meet the criteria for each scholarship. Different organizations have different deadlines and requirements, so start the process sooner rather than later to have the best chance of success. Keep in mind, many local parishes, dioceses, and Catholic Charities organizations also offer scholarships or grants, so don't forget to investigate locally as well!

Also, consider using Appily, an online platform that can help you find a range of scholarships. It's an useful tool to find additional opportunities that align with your faith, academic background, and interests. Good luck with your search!
