WHAT MAKES VERBUM DEI DIFFERENT
The Corporate Work Study Program
Every Verbum Dei student works one day a week at a real job with one of our corporate partners — for all four years. It's how a rigorous Jesuit education stays affordable, and how a diploma turns into a résumé.
1. Real Work, Starting Freshman Year
Students rotate through professional office environments most peers won't see until after college.
2. Earnings Fund Tuition
Wages from the work-study program are one of the reasons net tuition can be as low as $4,800 a year.
3. A Head Start on College and Career
By graduation, students have four years of references, workplace skills, and professional confidence.
AFFORDING VERBUM DEI
$4,800
| Full Cost of Education | $24,000 |
| Corporate Work Study Award | -$9,200 |
| Verbum Dei Scholarship | -$10,000 |
| Typical Net Tuition | $4,800 |
$4,800 is the typical net tuition (subject to annual increase) a Verbum Dei family pays — after Corporate Work Study earnings and school scholarship are applied to the full $24,000 cost of education. To receive additional support, each family must complete two applications, and both are required: the Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) evaluates your family for outside tuition assistance, and FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment calculates what your family can reasonably contribute toward tuition. No student is denied admission because of financial need.
From Our Community
Families Like Yours, In Their Own Words
Choosing Verbum Dei was one of the best decisions our family has made. From day one, our son was surrounded by people who cared about who he was becoming, not just the grades he was earning. Verbum Dei challenged him academically and helped him grow as a leader. We didn't just choose a school—we joined a family.Parent
Verbum Dei helped me turn my goals into reality. Through mentorship, Corporate Work Study, and clubs that exposed me to law, policy, and business, my grades became real career outcomes—not just numbers on a transcript. Verb connects you to alumni, donors, and counselors who actually fight for you, even after graduation.

Josiah Hankerson '25
Verbum Dei gave me much more than a high school education—it gave me the character to improvise, adapt, and overcome the challenges called 'Life,' a brotherhood that's lasted decades, and the foundation to become the man I am today. More than 40 years later, I'm still proud to say I'm an Eagle, and even prouder to see that same spirit in today's students. VERB-4-LIFE.
