Scholarship Guidelines
The Emmaus Road Scholarship Fund was established to benefit any student registered at one of our 51 schools and parochial elementary schools in the Diocese of Columbus.
Scholarships are prioritized for low-income students, designated as 300% of the federal poverty line; however, all students can benefit from this program, making an authentically, Catholic education accessible and affordable for all who desire it.
