A Night to
Merit-Based Scholarships
Since Cor Jesu Academy’s founding, our goal has been to make a high-quality Catholic education accessible to any academically-qualified young woman. We are excited to recognize these bright young women for their hard work.
Starting with the Class of 2028, Merit-Based Scholarships are now available in addition to need-based financial aid. Scholarships are awarded based on test scores submitted with the Cor Jesu Academy admissions application.
FY 2024-25 DATES: JULY 1, 2024 - JUNE 30, 2025
FISCAL YEAR END BALANCE (IN MILLIONS)
Dear Cor Jesu Community,
On behalf of the entire Advancement team and all the students you supported, thank you for making this past year truly remarkable. Every achievement from the last fiscal year reflects your generosity, involvement and unwavering belief in Cor Jesu Academy and its mission.
At Cor Jesu, our mission guides every decision we make: to form young women into confident, compassionate leaders who will make a difference in the world. Every gift of your time, talent and resources is an investment in their future and in the countless communities they will one day serve.
This past year has been a year of blessings and bold steps forward. We raised more than $250,000 on Giving Tuesday which helped our Charger Fund surpass $550,000. The community Shined at our Auction — providing over $300,000 to Fund-A-Need supporting tuition assistance this year. Our Endowment continues to grow, reaching over $13M for the first time this year.
These achievements are more than milestones, they are moments that embody our shared commitment to form women of heart, faith and courage.
As we look to the year ahead, we are energized by the opportunities before us. Thanks to your support, Cor Jesu is able to offer tuition assistance, enhance academic programs and maintain a campus where students grow in mind, body and spirit.
We are grateful for everything you have made possible and look forward to all we will achieve together in the year ahead.
With gratitude,
Director of Institutional Advancement
