Falcon Family Tuition Plan
At West Catholic, we believe every family that desires a dynamic, excellence-driven Catholic education should have access to it. Our strongest financial aid program to date, the Falcon Family Tuition Plan, builds on our long tradition of supporting families and expanding our commitment to affordability more than ever before. The plan ensures that cost will never be the reason a student cannot attend West Catholic.
Through the Falcon Family Tuition Plan, West Catholic meets 100% of every student’s demonstrated financial need. This completely covers the gap between the cost of attendance and what your family can reasonably contribute.

Upcoming Admissions Events
Experience West
Tuesday, October 28, 2025 | 6:30-8:30 p.m.
On Experience West Night, families have the opportunity to take a campus tour with one of our current students, hear from the experience of current parents, see what is happening at West Catholic, and learn about the next steps of the enrollment process. Faculty and staff members are on hand to answer questions and light refreshments were provided.
WC Shadow Days
On a West Catholic Shadow Day, 8th-grade students are paired with a West Catholic student to experience a day in their life. By sitting in on a few classes, eating in the lunchroom and meeting future classmates, your child will see what they will experience during their time at West.
To schedule a shadow day or individual visit, please email our Admissions Director and let her know which date(s) work best for you. Other days may be available upon request.
